What are your general thoughts in a 3bet pot and on those hands in particular?
Villains are generall unknown, due to some HM issues unfortunately...

I don't think we have to go broke everytime, but I'm not sure.

With the exception of the first scenario, it looks like you're playing a lot of your premium hands from EP. Consider folding them in EP, as the potential value really isn't worth continuing with the hands. In the first scenario, I would've made my raise at least pot sized or better to discourage suck outs like that.

Hand 1 looks OK to my inexpert eye.

Hand 2 get back to 100BB and raise bigger PF.

Hand 5 you need to think about why you are betting the flop. What worse hands can call? You lose to AA, KK and QQ; you're not going to get value from JJ; yes you might be able to get AK to fold but there are bigger dangers out there. No other hands are going to call your bet. Once he raises the flop you should be snap folding.

Hand 6 is interesting. I think you need to bet the flop because there are very few cards which improve you and plenty which improve him. When you bet you are going to be called by almost every hand he has, and you won't know whether you're ahead or behind (the only hands which will fold are going to be AK, most AQ, the unlikely few KQ hands). The Q on the turn is a bad card unless he stuck around with AQ or KQ; unfortunately he got there with QQ, AJs, KJs, JTs, QTs (some of those hands more likely than others) and betting again is just too optimistic. There are very few hands remaining which you still beat.

Curious, what is your overall win % and dollars with these hands overall? Do you have that data? There may be some bet sizing I might do a little bit different preflop (nothing substantial - most hands look fine), but otherwise these look like good hands.

No, most of the time you shouldn´t go broke, bc you won´t be bloating the pot most of the time in 3b pots (it´s already bloated from preflop action).

Without reads, H1 looks ok.

H2/3 (they are the same lol), I´m going broke there.

H4 is ok.

H5 go bigger. Your sizing seems really bad. 1 pot at least. Then go broke otf.

H6 is not a 3b pot. Playing defensive poker with your KK on this board seems better. They won´t fold a J here to 2/3 pot bet anyway (and I think they are right), so x/c flop. As played, I think your fold is ok I guess. It´s not a board that you want to play a big pot, as it´s slightly better for his range than yours.

Having reads would reaaaaally help a lot, but if you´re playing on party normal tables, I guess that´s impossible.
