Hand 1 : I overbet pot because of the drawy board and so many villians in the pot , is this good justification to overbet or no? Looking back i should have went for the C/rai? Now what should my line be on the turn given all the flat calls? Bet/call a shove? Check/fold , or Open shove. or bet/fold?

Also hand 2: I checked , what if it checks through? (it did) , do i valuebet the river or is that pretty ugly to do with the 4 card straight out there?

1)3 callers? I'm shoving right here, right now. A fine turn card & one monkey will probably call.
2)Check with 2 callers, a J/combo is almost always a part of their range as is JT. Also, with so many people, I think CRAI might be a lot better, because in a 6.5 were always getting callers. Having it check through is disastrous so betting can't be bad.

Hand 1- I never ever overbet the pot but it would help in getting in in better on the turn so I don't know. When are you suppose to overbet the pot? With that many people on the flop someone is going to be right so you can check raise? If it gets checked through it would be bad though because you have the lowest two pair and there is a flush draw out there.

Truflordiagator What you mean by shoving right there? On the flop or the turn?

Hand-2 Wow that is a drawy board! Would just shoving right there be really bad? I would probably pot the flop too but I hate doing it and a bad turn card hits. Then you just slow down right? If someone bets again would you fold or you are attached to this hand?

holler @ tfg, shove turn hand 1, not that bad of a card and it's not that much of an overbet. also like crai hand 2 flop since lots of turns scare ur action and scare u.

Thanks for the replies.
FWIW hand 1 i pretty much shoved turned (bet 750 , and ended u cpalling a shove) , Button had 34offsuit , no 5 or 2 on river oh well gg.
Hand 2 got checked down and i had the best hand.
