I think 1 and 3 are ok. Hand 2 I check behind turn. I dont understand the river at all though.

Hand 3 - Check the flop? Bad flop for AA I'd play it more passively.

what to do in three might have something to do with what happened after the river in two.

Value?

1 looks good, 2 looks perfect.

3 I prob fold on the turn, sometimes i check behind flop. I think you played all of them fine.

Which hands (that have us beat) does he check on the river? He can't just check a boat assuming i'm going to shove the river.

IMO, players never check a river here with something stronger than what I have.

I would usually check the flop vs a good player, but this guy seems to be the donk-ish type and I think there is value in cbetting and its also important not to let him draw for free.

no and if you showed your hand in two i'd consider calling more.
