One hand, one preflop question

Hand 1: I like calling BB's flop c/r as opposed to 3betting...Definitely check the turn, given the action on the flop, these guys aren't going anywhere. River, booyah

Hand 2: Calling really sucks here, pretty easy 3bet

I thought the flop 3-bet was a pretty good play. If BB didn't raise I was obviously doing it because I had a mega equity edge, but based on the PFR's flop call it seems he has unpaired broadways, and if he can fold them that would be pretty sweet for me (esp. KJ/AK).

I misread, I thought the PFR made a continuation bet

Hand 1 - I don't like the flop 3-bet with that many people still around. You don't have a hand to protect, so you're not trying to drive people out, and I think you'll end up with a bigger pot overall if you don't force the non-raisers to call two bets instead of one.

Hand 2 - a PFR of 12% isn't that much out of line. Definitely not something I'd try to isolate with Axs myself. A-rag suited is usually only good for hitting the nut flush, so I'm not sure why you're trying to clear people out. I fold this one pre-flop.
