Default 2/4 Line Checks - I suck, right?

Comments on all streets in all hands appreciated, recently found myself doubting a lot of my play in 3-bet pots pre and post-flop. I have a feeling that it's my pre-flop thinking that's flawed. Thanks in advance.

------------------
HAND #1
------------------

Villain is 17/14/4.5 and I've 3-bet him a bit pre but nothing extreme by any means. He views me as LAG I would suspect.

UTG: $412
MP: $197.60
CO: $468.25
BTN: $335.80
SB: $787.50
Hero (BB): $424.30

Pre-Flop: J J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BB)
2 folds, <font color="red">CO raises to $14</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $44</font>, CO calls $30

Flop: ($90) 9 4 8 (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">CO bets $60</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $380.30 and is All-In</font>




------------------
HAND #2
------------------

Villain is 17/14/1.7 and my feel for him thus far is that he's TAGfishy and would fold too light in 3-bet pots post-flop.

Hand 1 is meh. Just bet/call if you want the money in, he's not folding better.

Hand 2 sucks preflop, flop is ok.

hand 1 : it's fine, you have to get your money in here with so many draws. Your line looks good, I usually just bet call

hand 2 : You have to fold many times in that situation preflop, but mixing it up by calling once in a while aint so bad either. Once you got your draw on the flop, it's not like you can fold that hand anymore...

Both very standard.

1. Is ok as long as you mix up what you push which you do in 2.

2. Not sure why you posted!

Hand 1 your preflop raise is too small, make it 55. A C/R is ok but I prefer bet/call. Do you C/F AK here? If so then I like C/R a bit more.
Hand 2 you need to be a lot deeper before you can start making these 3bet calls in position, flop is standard.
