Apologies if I'm posting a lot of hands. Just wondering if anyone plays it differently and if the flop decision is obvious.

Bleh I hate these spots. I think you played it fine up to the flop lead. What to do when opp shoves over is read dependent. If he has been picking off c-bets regularly then I call and expect him to show missed overcards. Readless I probably just fold it - you have 11x BB left which is squarely in push/fold territory but by no means totally desperate yet.

I fold this pre from this position.. is it too bad?

As played it's pretty hard and read dependent.. No mistake either way IMO..

I might fold this pre very early on but I'm pretty sure it's a mistake at these blinds.

depending on how the table has been running, i often limp this from early and try to get a monster pot going with a set on the flop. little invested then lets me lay it down.
after the flop in this situation I usually check, then if he bets, i'm shoving over, which I feel is more a position of power. If he checks, I'm betting the turn hard no matter what comes.
There's my goofy moves anyways.
