Default Re: 2-7 TD, LL SNG: Bad play or simply standard?

rd 1: I like the check in a tournament. In a cash game I might raise, but it would depend on UTG's limping standards.

2: Seems normal - check/call is also possible as you're OOP but knocking out SB is good, and making him call 2 bets is probably still good for you even if you're behind.

3: I assume SB went check/fold here? standard.

4: standard.

Your opponent may pat a 9 (esp 95/96), but he'll definitely pat 876s, so you have odds (even assuming you check/call river with an 8 when you're behind/drawing dead).
