Need more time at he range.

It has been a swingy week and I dont think I have posted at all. I started the week strong and was up 5BI after Tuesday. I neglected posting and that is a major m,istake. I also had a routine of studying in the morning pre play and I stopped this week. I also tryed to start playing 6 tables on 2 monitors and open my game up IP which sometime causes me to lose focus and overplay my hands because I think am getting played back at. Here are a few hands where I think I messed up.

Hand 1 Villain is 47/13/.75 I need to not care when I get KK and encounter resistance. I have to treat this like AK sometimes and just give it up.

Absolute PokerNo Limit Holdem Ring gameBlinds: $1/$26 players
Stack sizes:UTG: $78UTG+1: $346.25CO: $96.35Button: $173SB: $82.10Hero: $253.50
Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with ks kd UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO calls, 2 folds, 2 folds, Hero raises to $14, UTG+1 calls, CO folds.
Flop: 8s 4d 2h ($31, 2 players)Hero bets $20, UTG+1 raises to $40, Hero calls.

I think this is an easy call and looking at it this is a real dry flop. There are no draws he is doing this with. He has TP a set and that is all I think.
Turn: 9c ($111, 2 players)Hero checks, UTG+1 bets $112, Hero raises all-in $199.5, UTG+1 calls.

When he bets this big on the turn even if I am ahead I think this is an easy fold. I had seen this playr mash pot on a draw but I dont see him it doing it in this spot without 2p or better.
River: :10h ($510, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $510)
Results:Final pot: $510UTG+1 Shows 8h 8dHero Shows Ks Kd


Hand 2 villain is 51/27/1.5 Did I catch a case of FPS?

Absolute PokerNo Limit Holdem Ring gameBlinds: $1/$25 players
Stack sizes:Hero: $541.60CO: $221Button: $120.55SB: $324.60BB: $100
Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is UTG with ad qh Hero raises to $8, CO calls, 3 folds.
Flop: kh as 2d ($19, 2 players)Hero bets $14, CO calls.

When villain calls I put him on a Ax hand or a PP maybe a gut shot straight draw.
Turn: 3d ($47, 2 players)Hero checks, CO bets $20, Hero raises to $76, CO raises all-in $199, Hero calls.

I decided to C/R here to extract value from all hands a DB folds out. Is this greed and FPS or a good play as this guy is a super aggro donk? Also when I decided to C/R I also told myself I had to call a shove. What is his shoving range?
River: 8s ($445, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $445)
Results:Final pot: $445CO Shows Ah 3hHero Shows Ad Qh

Hand 3: Villain is 41/20/1.3

Absolute PokerNo Limit Holdem Ring gameBlinds: $1/$25 players
Stack sizes:UTG: $417.93CO: $439.20Hero: $200.40SB: $195.65BB: $133
Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is Button with kh kc UTG raises to $4, CO folds, Hero raises to $20, 2 folds, UTG calls.
Flop: jh 6d 8s ($43, 2 players)UTG checks, Hero bets $34, UTG calls.

This guy was a donk and I was looking to take him to value city.
Turn: qh ($111, 2 players)UTG checks, Hero bets $74, UTG raises to $148, Hero calls all-in $72.4.Uncalled bets: $1.6 returned to UTG.

Pretty bad card for villains range? T9 got there and JQ. Should I be checking this turn for PC? I bet knowing I was calling a shove. Is this just a cooler or did I misplay this? I need to get value from a donk here who call me down light but is this the right board to do it on?
River: 6c ($403.8, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $403.8)
Results:Final pot: $403.8UTG Shows 8h 8dHero Shows Kh Kc
