I think hand 1 and 3 have been discussed thoroughly so hand 2 deserves a little bit more thought. I think checking the turn is fine here although I'd prefer betting out again. As played, I would check-raise the turn and assuming other player folds, push any non-club river. I think it's very clear Gene doesn't have the nut flush here (I don't see him limping Button with Kxcc, he'd be raising KJc KTc etc) and he'll have a tough time calling a c/r and a push without the nuts. He's also the type who's willing to part with medium flushes, which gives this line a high success rate. Of course, this line is based on the assumption that you don't have the Qc in this hand because I think you would have mentioned it if you did.
