Default Tom Cruise is insane/How\'d I play these 3/6 6max hands?

Seriously, Cruise really is nuts. Many thanks for any suggestions you might have on these hands...

Should I have called and folded the river UI?

BB is weak-tight... Open limper has VP$IP over 65.

I needed to bet the turn to get a free showdown, right? Or was the pot too small? D'oh.

Did I miss a raise on the river? A fold on the turn? Villain is 67/8/1 over a very small sample, I think he's prob more like 50/10/1.5 from his playing style.

1. fine read dependent
2. fine
3. not sure, think fine, they all called your bet so they prolly have a diamond they dont wanna fold
4. raise turn he wont believe you anyways and if he checks behind when the flush hits it sucks
5. cap river

1 and 2 are both fine.

3, I don't like for some reason. I feel the need to either bet the turn or call the river. It's 3-way, so it's super borderline. 2-way, I do what I said. 4-way, I'm folding.

4, do something on the turn.

5, You need to cap the river. Also, the earlier streets don't seem quite right. I like doing something different, but not sure what at the moment. Let me think and get back to you.

If you must make a multiple hand post, try and get a running theme together. Especially on a Friday, I'm too drunk to remember these without having two browsers open. Anywho...

#3 I agree with Metetron. I either bet the turn or call the river, and which line I take depends on how nutty (read: apt to bluff/no-flush c/r me) my opponents are.

#4 You're giving up a ton of bets between the times he'll check behind on the river, fold to your river lead if you do that, or go nuts with a second-best hand on the turn. Going for a c/r on the river was pretty ballsy, and I'd need to have a very specific read to do it, something as exact as he'd fold to a turn c/r but bet the river and call a c/r if checked to.

#5 Pretty easy river cap.
