Default Two hands for review

Guys I would like your thoughts on my plays here.
Hand #1.
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $0.5.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO (poster) checks, Hero calls, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, CO folds, Hero calls, SB calls.

Flop: (11 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, SB folds, BB calls, MP1 calls.

Too aggressive here?

Turn: (10 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, MP1 calls, Hero folds.

Should I have checked or continue being the aggressor? I figured I was beaten here after the check raise.
River: (15 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, MP1 calls.

Final Pot: 17 BB

Hand #2.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

BB checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

Turn: (7.75 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>

Should I have 3-betted here?

River: (11.75 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

75 BB

i like the second hand. after the second 8 hit your boy UTG2 got excited, but I call it down and see, could be a bluff, and you have outs to the boat if another king hits. The first hand i think i check/call the turn and river. note: he did not cap you on the flop, just called your 3bet, so either hes playing you or he knows he can be beaten. however that river is trash, giving anyone with a club a flush. when there are 4 to a flush on the board i usually fold to a bet unless i have one of the suit. correct?

First hand: I'd probably fold preflop with so many players and a weak TP hand. I also fold the flop to 2 bets, action shows pair of T is no good here.

Second hand: I originally thought a 3bet would be good, but probably not. The top card on the board paired, and it is unlikely that he is raising you with anything less than trips. Check/call the way down, probably. I would definitely 3bet if a brick hit though.

No reads whatsoever?

Flop is hard. I rarely coldcall on the flop, but I might do it here. The way you played it I like the turn fold. BB most likely has the nut flush here.

Hand 2 is fine. You could fold the turn against a very predictable passive player. 3-betting would be bad (he would fold a hand you beat and cap with an 8).

I was either 3-betting here or folding like you're suggesting. However,I thought I use my position here and 3-bet and see how these guys react since I have top pair.

River doesn't matter since we folded the turn.

hand #1: i'd probably cold-call (blech, i hate doing that) the flop and wait to see what happens on the turn. and i'd have let it get checked through too.

hand #2: goot IMHO.
