Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

villain here is about 15/8/1.5, but I must not have looked, based on how much I feared him having 78. This hand was just paranoid multitabling stupidity, I should have 3-bet the turn. I'm leaving it in the post, because I'm curious when if ever I should slow down. I'm thinking if he caps the turn, bet/call on the river unless the board pairs.

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Hero calls, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (5 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, SB folds, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, CO calls.

Turn: (5.50 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, Hero calls.

River: (9.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 11.50 BB

Default Re: flop a set but the board gets scary and players get aggro

hand 1: I am 3-betting the turn, getting pissed off when the ten hits and then calling his river bet while swearing at the computer.
hand 2: The board did not get scary here. You are almost certainly seeing monsters. I am capping every street...not pf [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I have no idea how to play the first hand, but on the second one I would definitely bet/raise the crap out of the turn and river.
I liked this advice which I got from Bottomset: "a key to playing is not to always be scared" ( link ).

Yeah, I knew I [censored] up the 2nd hand when I posted it. I think the first hand was played well, but I'm not sure, so I'm asking.

Hand 1: Why are you 3-betting against a check-raise with a flush obvious and no history on the villain?

I am 3-betting, because I am retarded and didn't even notice the flush. Given that it is there, I like your play of hand 1. Sorry.
