Stars 4.40 Key hands

[Le Sug]

Hey all

Had a good run in the stars 4.40 tonight - was unhappy with all these hands, hoping for some advice or confirmation that these were bad/good. Any push/raise/folds? I don't think they were that bad but when you lay a reasonable hand down you want a decent reason - what do you think?

For some reason hand converter not liking this one - I raised to 3600, MP1 puts enough in (just) to put me all in - after a long think I fold.

Hand 1: I think your fold is good here although I don't think a call would be too out of line.

Hand 2: I would call here.

Hand 3: Raise PF. I'm commiting all my chips on flop.

Hand 4: Man, don't call here!!! You have 5xBB and you're just calling? POoooooooooooooooosh. On the flop I just call because you won't have any chips left over if you fold.

push,push,push,push all preflop

and please never limp with 14k and 1.5k/3k blinds. Also, try not to ever limp when first in pot
