Reads = good.

That being said:

Hand one: I just call the river. Otherwise I like.

Hand two: I might check raise the river. No, on second though I like how you did it. No on third thought, it is read dependent.

Hand three: Sling yr balls over yr shoulder and value bet that turn.

Sorry I forgot to post, I only played a few orbits. The table was playing very loose. The button in hand number 2 was very very loose. I didn't have any real specific reads besides those, sorry.

Hand 2: 3-bet the river. What were you scared off that kept you from raising? The flush? It all depends on whether or not he's the kind of player who would raise a turned flush draw, but I'm quite sure you had him on the river. Is that right?

3 betting the turn might have been an idea, too, but I'm not so sure about that play.

hand 1: I think I would go for overcalls on the river.

hand 2: You played it fine. I would have CR'ed the river, but what you did was fine.

hand 3: Bet the turn. Once Button raises the river, you can fold. You're almost never good after that.

Hand #1

I would have gone for overcalls on the river. BB might have made a straight. By just calling, it will cost you less if you are beaten, and possibly gain you extra bets from MP2 and SB if you have the best hand.

Hand #2

I would have check/called on the river. Its possible that Button could have a weaker 2 pair than yours, but I think its more likely that his turn raise was a slow-played set.

Hand #3

I would have bet the turn. Then assuming no one raised my turn bet, I would have check/called on the river.

I suspect that UTG may have had something like Tx and I think that Button may have had 8x (perhaps A8) and been on an OESD. Betting the turn, would not have given either player a free card to draw out on you if they were behind.
