Hand 1: You might very well be right to bet the turn but I don't like it. I would guess he's on a spades draw but I don't think you are deep enough to bet it. I'd check.
Hand 2: This had just plain sucks. I think I would play it the same way and I think it's probably wrong. Laying down QQ in HU is very hard but I'm not sure what else you can do. Unless the turn helps you, you need to expect what happened to happen a lot and be forced to fold w/o an amazing read.
Hand 3: I think easy call. I generally only play $22 level on PS, but i think the pushing range is probably AJ+ and maybe 66+. I would give extra weight to pairs smaller than AA and to AK.

I'm no expert so it wouldn't hurt to get mor experienced playrs input.

Hand#1 - I don't mind betting the turn but I probably would have bet a bit less . On the river , you're getting about 2.67:1 on your call which is very tempting but it's probably unlikely he is playing bottom pair this way . The only other hand he may have bet the river that you beat is probably a busted draw . Either way , I don't mind folding .

Hand#2- Not much you could do other than to maybe reduce your flop bet size just a bit .
