Default Re: $1.2 3 more trouble hands

hand 1 is well played

hand 2 I would just call and try to get a showdown cheaply. If he bets sizably i would fold

hand 3 you need to fold on the flop.
On the turn, you are looking at a split pot at best, because any ace ties, a 6 wins, and clubs win too. I would just fold as played.

Agree with all of this:

For multi-way pots where you are not clearly the best (or very strong draw) you should avoid raising and look to get to a cheap showdown. Generally avoid cbetting when it is not headsup *especially* after they have put in a bet like hand 2.
