200NL, a few line checks

Hand 1:
-no real reads in this hand, other than villain being 21/15/2 over 40 hands
-How overkill is this push considering the stack sizes? I was going to 3-bet, but figured I'd be committed to a push anyhow, so might as well push myself

hand 1 is fine but slightly overkill
hand 2 i dont like. he folds the turn just as often as he would if you check and he checks river and you push, so why not take that line just to be safe? people usually dont check turn and riv with hands that would call a push. also i think your flop raise is too big.
hand 3: fold, looks like big pair. also he is raising a tight utg raiser pre so his range is not so wide, and if he had AK he would probably try a little harder to bluff you.

If folding preflop in hand 3 wrong? being OOP, both villains ranges and UTG still to act behind preflop

Yah do you mean folding to the river bet? or flop/preflop?

I don't think we can fold preflop, since we definitely have some set value, especially if UTG flat calls also. If UTG pushes, we have an easy fold.

Isn't calling for set value, with that stacks and with UTG still to act really bad?
