1 - Don't complete, just push. Completing is very very bad here. As played I'm folding once he raises here.
2 - If you're gonna play this hand, push or fold flop. Calling isn't doing to do much.
3 - So standard it hurts????
4 - I'm folding this UTG. Maybe push from button, and definetly from sb.

FOLD KK HE HAS ACES YOU FOOL

(4T, bad I think; 33, just push yourself; T9s, I honestly don't know. I think this might be okay actually)

What the others said. I ran the T9s hand through SNGPT, it is not a good push. Interestingly it is a slightly -EV push even from the button assuming the big stack's range is going to be relatively looser.

The T4 hand is FPS I think, I just fold the flop.

I like all of givememyleg's comments. The T9s hand was definitely a fold.

I still don't know what FPS means.

Fancy Play Syndrome. It's a 2+2 acronym

Ok that makes sense.
