Can I make a couple of suggestions for future post to allow for more responses?

1. Post one hand at a time

2. Give a brief description of hand in subject.

3. Avoid showing results if possible

Here is a cool guidline thread

Guidelines for effective strategy post
This will get you more feedback in the future.

I will tackle a couple of your hands though. smile

Hand #1: I do not like the shove with 2 left to act after you wih the 8Jo, if you do get called it is by better and with shorthanded play usually means Kx or Ax.

Hand #2: With your blinds where they are at this is a standard shove.

Hand #4: I think you could get away with a shove here, your blinds are getting low and T9s is not bad shorthanded. You could argue for a shove or a fold here. I would like to see what the pros or more experience players think on this one myself.

Hand #5:This one is tough seems like a steal attempt from the SB. If your image was tight, I would make the call.
