First session in my quest to crush the NL tables

Hand 3

As the preflop raiser out of position hitting all high cards on the flop, I continuation bet for $4 on this flop, check the turn (hoping to check through, but calling up to 3/4 pot), then blocking bet the river (willing to call a min-raise, but not much more).

Other than the fact that I would have led the flop, this looks ok to me. If he has a T for the straight, o well. You might have got a hand with a T in it to fold if you led the flop, but you might not. As it played out, I think you can call $7 more on the river to try and win $23.85 with top 2-pair despite the fact that any T will beat you.

Hand 1:
He played like he got a big pair, so it was probably a good fold.
