Some of my best Sit n Go's yet. Please critique

[Staple Gun]

These are some hand histories from some SnG's I played tonight on Ultimate Bet. The first one was a $10, and the second one was a $20. I felt like I played really good in these, in the second one I caught a lot of cards down the stretch. I finished second in both. Here are some hands I wanted a little feedback on.

----------------------------------------------------------------

This is the tighest fold I made in this SnG. This guy was fairly aggressive, and min raised preflop almost every time he stayed in. Only time I saw his cards he had min raised with AK. I put him on AA or 10 with higher kicker here, and possibly flush. I would say about 50% of the time I have this hand won, but I didnt want to risk my chips this early. This game was filled with fish and I was confident I could get at least ITM without making this call.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Dominated here? AK AA or KK is what i put him on, possibly QQ but I didnt think anything that I had beat. If he had low pockets I think he reraise AI here. The not all-in raise kept me away even though I wanted to call with 1/3rd my stack in the pot.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Good enough odds to call this? I figured I probably had the flush outs as well so I had maybe 30%-40% chance of picking it up. Maybe I should have just folded after the flop.

Most loose call of the game here, but with 1700 in return for my 900 call I figured I needed to hit If I wanted to have a chance. With blinds raising to what would have been 1/3rd of my stack I needed to do something quick. I got ridiculed for this call at the table but I think I make more over it in the long run.

Is there any way I could have milked more out of this hand? Should I raise the flop to look like I'm just trying to drive him out?

[Humphrind]

Hand 1:
Bet the flop.

Hand 2:
Nice slow-play. You sure you didn't want to wait till the river to stick it to him? Or give him a more-callable bet on the river?

hand 3:
Nothing leads me to think he had 2 pair or better. But you didnt have much room to improve. With you stack, and your position, nice fold.

Hand 4:
Very nice fold. But don't be so quick to put people on AK, AA or KK. He could have had a much wider range of hands. But he's got you out-stacked and you needed to fold. Good job.

Hand 5: If you're going to push, push on the flop. The turn is actually a worse place for you to call an all-in. But you had the chip lead to do what you did.

Hand 6:
Raising all in with an OSD is one thing. But calling an all-in with an OSD is another. If you hand is so bad that you want to check it, you are screwing yourself out of money in the long run.

Hand 7:
With no action on the flop, you need to bet the turn. I'd suggest about a pot-sixe bet to trick your opponent into thinking that you are trying to buy the pot. THey will call with even 2nd pair. And if you buy it here, oh well. You woulnd't have won much anyway.
