Default $6.50: i\'m the worst kind of calling station

i'm getting huge odds for the turn call, and the only card i'm really scared of is the A. anyone fold or play this differently?

hand1: i check the flop. if you want to get your money in, a c/r works a lot better than just leading out. the way you play it, you're calling all in with A high in a reraised pot in the early stages of an sng, that cannot be helping your tournament equity that much, regardless of his range.

Hand 1 PF is fine buuuut I'd probably prefer to push the 2nd time it comes around to you. I dunno WTF MP is doing min-raising with his stack but he obv sucks, and SB has a huge stack so again range is wide. I'm happy to get it AI pre-flop in these circumstances.

Flop bet is gross though. You're in a great situation to check, MP is probably gunna go ALL-IN and then you can see what SB does before you have to act.

Hand #2, 3xBB PF is fine, so I'd bet t150. Flop bet I'd probably make like t350 in this situation so you can then shove turn.
