NL10 Attacking PFR checkback with Overbets from BB - Three Hand Examples

I recently studied attacking capped ranges on the turn with overbets. One stereotypical example is that the PFR will never have a range check in position when called by an out of position player in a heads up pot for large SPRs. Hence flop check-backs cap the PFR's range, which we attack with overbets as the PFC on static turns. I came across three applications in today's session. Are these all played well? Do you guys disagree with my selection of overbet spots in general and the specific holdings I chose the line with?

Hand 1: Turning nutted Hand
Stereotypical example of a blank turn. I don't have overpairs here since I would have 3-bet AA-TT preflop. I overbet trips, full houses, nut flushdraws and combo draws on this turn.

Hand 2: Pair plus OESD vs. capped PFR range
CO is a regular and of course insanely capped after this flop check back which smashes his range in comparison to mine. I wasn't sure whether this hand plays more like a medium pair (due to the Qx) and c/c or more like a nut potential bluff (due to the OESD to the nuts, no flush on board).

Hand 3: Becoming creative with overbet bluffs
In general, we want to overbet our nutted hands against capped turn ranges as well as our nut potential bluffs to balance out our value bets. However, there are board textures where we will just not have any nut potential bluffs but we still want to be able to overbet our value hands. When studying solver behavior in overbetting turns in GTO+, it is apparent that in these situations, the solver will still overbet its nutted hands and just become more creative with bluffs, overbetting hands like gutshots and BDFDs. I guess this flop is a nice example of this, hence the overbet with 98s here.

I'm optimistic to fold out Ace high, 7x and 88-TT with an overbet turn, bet river line on most runouts. Since the river interconnects so well with his defending range, I changed to c/f though.
