Hand 1: I call (and plan on losing most of the time).
Hand 2: I check
Hand 3: I bet and fold if raised.

3-bet, bet, bet

Hand 1: Tough decision, seems like you would have heard from him on the turn if he had 2 pair, but SB capping after you 3-bet would be terrible, so I would probably call.

Hand 2: I check, the only hands that pay you off are small pp and maybe a 7, but they should have folded by now. It's really read dependent I guess.

Hand 3: Bet-call against an unknown or tricky opponent, bet-fold if you have a read.

there are a lot of worse kings and possibly a queen shooting for the gutshot that are going to call a river bet in hand #2

[crunchy1]

Hand #1 - Lead the flop - the whole hand will play differently.
Hand #2 - Check. That card completes several of the only reasonable draws he could have by the river. Only better hands are calling worse hands are folding anyways. See your showdown for free.
Hand #3 - Bet/Call. That king makes it less likely that he's holding a K and even if he was you should've been check-raised on the turn. It's also a good card for him to bluff-check/raise so you really need to call if he does this.

Hand 1 I think is close but I'd just call and get the overcall. HU I would 3-bet.

Hand 2 I can't really think of many worse hands that pay off and you're probably splitting. If I had AK I'd say very easy bet. I doubt if a 7 bets the flop. A flush draw came on the river and a straight draw either got there or isn't paying off.

Hand 3 I don't think is close at all. Easy bet.
