So here are a couple of hands where I decided to multibarrel, I will try to add some relevant stats or my reads/history.
1) So in this hand, preflop just basically trying to set an aggressive image and looking villain to play extremely straightforward post with his hands face up (std TAG, no reads, first time I 3bet him this sess).
On the flop I realized later after discussing the hand with some guys that flop bet is too small ( more around 85 I guess ), other than that I have a gutter and I c-bet.
After he just calls the flop I am excluding all big hands from his range and decided to just 3 barrel and expect him to fold anything up to JJ which I strongly believe makes up his entire range.
Also a timing note, he supertanked turn which makes me think he made a set plan for river.

2) At this table I have an aggro image and just lost a 400bb pot couple of hands ago. Villain seems to be a weak nit and we have no history.
Preflop superstd, flop std c-bet, basically same thing happens again - I think after he just c/c's his range he can never be stronger than 1pair, so I bet the turn and plan on betting the river as I think he has pair+gutter type hands a lot, so thats exactly what I do (also river comes a 3flush and I can easily rep that). Also here as well I realized later that my betsizes are too small for these stacks but ok.

3) OK, so this hand I am clueless about, I feel like pre I standard, on the flop he is probably betting a wide range and I decide to c/r figuring I can fire multiple streets if needed. However, after he 3-balls my c/r I get kind of clueless - don't really wana fold, can't really call and just spazjam basically.
Question that I'm interested is if I can just c/c flop or if I do c/r then can I fold to his 3-bet (w/o history I doubt he's ever bluffing and he can even have my draw in a bad shape with AXcc or something)

4) And here the last hand. Villain is like 38/20 semi-LAG and I am yet to understand if he's decent or just a bad aggrotard.
I think up to turn is superstandard, however turn is an all-around known bad doublebarrel card, so I decide to keep betting representing a very strong range and follow through on the riv thinking he would never slowplay anything on that flop bc it's so drawy and Kx hands can't stand heat by the river. (???)
So as a general rule in these hands I just see weakness or hands that can't stand much pressure and try to lean on them, are there any general rules or tips that I could apply to in similar spots ? It just seems to me that I am going bat**** insane trying to 3-barrel everyone off everything because they can never be strong in spots like these ...
Also thanks to anyone who actually took the time to read all that stuff and give his thoughts
