Default A few recent hands-Bet/Fold situations?

A few minutes ago I read a post regarding Bet/fold situations. I feel like I just came up on one, where I was going to take the tactic
a)show aggression on the flop unless there are overcards.
b)3 bet any raise and see how villain responds
c)fold to any raise on the turn if overcards appear or UI.
Hand #1
Limit .25-.50
FTP 9 players
Hero is in the SB with 2 black 10s
3 folds to MP who raises, all fold to Hero in SB who calls...
My intention was to see the flop and then show aggression. I am uncomfortable 3 betting OOP and then seeing A, K, or Q show up and be raised or play it weak with a check/call.
BB calls.
3 players 6 bets
FLOP-892 rainbow
Hero bets, BB folds, MP raises, Hero 3 bets, MP calls.
I am thinking that the MP has AKs-AJs, or JJ-QQ at best.
TURN-10 (no flush draw)
Hero bets, MP calls.
Perhaps there is a straight draw here as I can still see MP with AJs. Villain was hoping to hit an overcard and now backed into an OESD.
RIVER-J
Hero bets, MP Calls...

Is this a bet/fold situation on the turn, or do I follow my read.
Hand #2
.25-.50 FTP 9 players
Villain in this hand shows alot of aggression when he is in the SB. Whenever he misses the flop, but has overs or a draw, he will C/R the field and lead every street.

Hero is on the button with black 6s.
4 folds, MP raises, 1 fold, Hero calls, SB calls, BB folds.
3 players, 7 bets
FLOP-8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
SB checks, MP checks, Hero bets, SB check raises, MP folds, Hero 3 bets, SB calls.
I now think that SB is on a FD, possibly Ace high, or a straight draw. I haven't seen him check raise TP in this situation as he ususally bets out.
TURN-Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB checks, Hero bets, SB check raises, Hero 3 bets, SB calls...
I am steaming a little and I still believe that he is trying to push me off this hand.
RIVER- 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB checks, Hero checks...

Hand #3
Can I fold this AA on the turn. The pot is too big and I haven't seen any aggression on the part of UTG.
My spidey sense is buzzing.

Poker stars .50-1.00

The table has been very aggressive over the last 3 orbits and I thought that I could take advantage of this when I picked up 2 black aces UTG+1. We have seen 2-4 players per hand on ave.
UTG raises, Hero calls, EP 3-bets, all fold to UTG who calls, Hero caps, all call.
3 players, 13.5 bets
FLOP 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG checks, Hero bets, EP raises, UTG calls, Hero 3 bets, EP caps, UTG calls...
I am thinking that UTG either has AK [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or somehow has a 10. I think EP has KK or AA.
3 players 25.5 bets
TURN-K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG checks, Hero bets, EP raises, UTG calls (I now know UTG has AK) Hero calls.
Turn 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Utg checks, Hero checks, EP bets,UTG calls, Hero calls...
