3 seperate river decisions

[djshawk]

I'm going to showdown too much and as a result am trying to think more about my river play. I think I played these three incorrectly. I've paused the action at my decision and provided any reads. Comments greatly appreciated as this is one of my weakest areas. Thanks.
