1-if i had a boat i would do this
2-i reraise flop because most players call too much
3-i check behind, dont think you bluff out many better hands

1, looks good because he's tight and therefore probably can read your hand, prob has an overpair with a heart since no flop raise, and you took a line for a boat (or bluff). I'd rather raise a little more on the river though.

2, yuck. pretty bad odds to call, and you probably dont fold him out enough by raising, unless he has a worse draw (not sure what lese to put him on then a 5). so I guess fold>call>>raise.

3, I have mixed thoughts on everything, but the river check seems ok after the flop and turn went like that. I tend to just 3bet the flop, and/or lead out the turn and river though.

4, umm not sure. after the flop, and with your weak-tight read it seems like a close call whether it works enough. he does look weak though (which he could use as logic to call), and at worst you spewed a little to get a bad image.

i value bet the river on hand 3. he checks behind the river with a lot of hands you are beating and that would call a value bet.
