    with 5bb ur push or fold. do not raise to 200

    9-handed short stacked with QJd you do NOT want a caller. If the table is tight, you can push here, otherwise fold. Another possibiility is to stop and go the flop (although you are not first to act, but you have to fold to any bet if you do not get a good draw or pair. Your M is 5 and everyone limping easily covers you. I would fold and look to open push with a pair or AT+.

    Hands 2 and 3 I play the same. I hate pushing top pair weak kicker, but I hate pushing 10-6 pre-flop with little folding equity too.

    Last hand, played horribly pre-flop, pretty good post flop. Why did you bet weaker on the turn? If they have a 4, you are screwed anyway. You are letting AT, JT, AQ, 2 clubs/spades draw WAY too cheap.

    Push the QJ preflop.

    Second hand is good.

    Fold the third hand preflop.
