Hand 1 Hero Folds

Hand 2 Hero doesnt raise off half 1/3 of his stack preflop.
After Hero raises preflop (which is bad) he calls becuase he has pretty much priced himself in.

Hand 3 Hero folds instead of raises.
Next time Hero raises preflop with a ~14xBB stack, hero needs to really contemplate why hero is raising in the first place. Hero also needs to devise a plan prior to raising to decide what he is going to do in these situations. I believe that these descisions are easy when you know what your intentions are.
Furthermore, I fold here. After the dudes limp reraise. Your AJ is no good here.

Hand 4 hero Folds Preflop
Hero folds hte flop with some crazy action before him.
Realize that this is an unlimped pot.
KT beats you
QJ beats you
TT, 99 KK beat you
with so much action after you reraise, you would let this hand go easily. IMHO of course.

I mostly agree with VQ

Hand 2 - I agree the raise is iffy and and prices you into the call, but this is a tough spot. I think maybe the line is limp, assume if BB raises after being tight you can safely fold, and plan on leading out for about 1.5-2 BBs on and flop.

Hand 4 folding two pair is NEVER easy but probably the right play here.
