Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with [Ah], [Kh].
3 folds, MP2 calls, CO calls, SB calls.

Flop: (8 SB) [Ts], [As], [Jd] (4 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, CO folds, SB calls, Hero calls.

Very scary flop. If I don't improve on the turn should I bail?

Turn: (7 BB) [Ks] (3 players)
SB bets, Hero calls, MP2 folds.

Good news and bad news. I now have outs to improve to a full house.

River: (9 BB) [5s] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero folds.

Does this look like a man who cannot beat two pair? Do I call here if a non flush hits?

Final Pot: 10 BB

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with [Qh], [Qd].
3 folds, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (10 SB) [5d], [Jc], [6s] (5 players)
SB checks, BB folds, Hero bets, MP3 folds, Button calls, SB calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) [7s] (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, Hero calls, Button calls.

River: (12.50 BB) [4h] (3 players)
SB bets, SB calls, Hero calls.

I think SB has me beat after the turn ck-raise. When the button raises, I know my hand is no good. I should fold, but since I get to close the action I'm curious as to what they're holding. Plus, if I fold and I would have won this hand, I lose an additional $1000 for the laptop I throw through the window.

Final Pot: 18.50 BB

Three bet the flop. A lot of people slow down on scary boards on the flop, which imo is not a good long term strategy as you will miss bets from people with insufficient odds on their draws. You can't be afraid of KQ here
I'm probably playing the rest of the hand the same way

Ugh. With another person left to act I'm folding on the river to the first bet. What can you beat here. AJ and 10-10 that's about it.
No way you have them both beat

i would 3-bet the flop with AK. I would also fold the river. There isnt much you're beating now. A worse two pair, but im not very sure how often that is.

the second hand is a pretty easy river fold once the button raises.
