how I'd play them..

#1 - fold
#2 - fold
#3 - fold before putting any money in
#4 - correct fold
#5 - fold before putting any money in
#6 - this one could be a push, depending on read on button..he's table CL, obv in steal position, you may be folding to any prior steals, etc.....I'd prob push this, no reason to flat call with so little behind
#7 - fold before putting any money in
#8 - fold
#9 - I'd raise here, prob 2-3BB

looks like you may be playing way too many weak hands oop...none of the above save #6 would be raising hands in my game, and you'd have to raise to isolate/figure out where you are from MP, so have a bit more patience for cards, or play stronger when in position

#1. AT is way overrated. I'd might call a normal raise being 5-handed, but even 5-handed it'd probably be an instafold. Especially if he raises such a huge ammount.
#2. A7o is even worse than AT. Instafold.
#3. KQo i'd raise from MP, KQs i'd raise from EP aswell. So just raise it up, but if there's a raiser in front of you you should fold KQ. Don't limp, it's suicide.
#4. Good fold.
#5. KQo i'd raise from MP, KQs i'd raise from EP aswell. So just raise it up, but if there's a raiser in front of you you should fold KQ. Don't limp, it's suicide.
#6. You could fold here, but i'd personally try to doubleup in this spot, because you've only got 6 BBs left. Less than that if you fold.
#7. Check preflop is fine, with such a flop though i'd probably put him allin on the flop.
#8. Good fold.
#9. Either raise, call(only with deeper stacks) or fold. All 3 is fine, but if you raise, raise about 2.75-3x the BB(being so shortstacked, normally i raise 3.5-4x BB from the SB) to discourage action. You don't want him to call and play postflop oop. You want him to fold or reraise allin so you can get away from the hand. So 2.75-3x the BB if you raise. Folding is fine aswell.

The only fold I'd question is Hand 9. K3o is a strong enough hand for a raise when you're 3-handed and the button folds it to you in the SB. You will most likely take the blinds, but if he calls then you just have to proceed cautiously on the flop. And if he comes over the top PF, you can throw it away.

The other problem seems to be the way you're playing your KQ hands OOP when the blinds are high. I actually have the same problem myself. I hate getting dealt hands like KQ in early position at a full table when the blinds are high, especially if there are short stacks still to act. If someone comes over the top with a reraise, you're likely going to be in a tough spot. But KQ is too strong a hand to fold. If the choice is between raising or limping, I think raising is almost always the right move. When in doubt, take the more aggressive line.

What kind of SNG is this? 18-man, 45-man? All of my answers are assuming you are NOT on the bubble.

1. You're so far ahead of his range here. Instacall

2. Again you're ahead of his range and I probably call. However if you're on the bubble I'd fold and continue to harass the rest of the table with the large stack

3. This is either shove or fold. Limping with less than 10BB's is a bad idea unless you're slow playing

4. Hmm, it's close. I think im shoving here, you only have to get through 5 people, 2 of which are short. Folding isnt bad either though.

5. Like the last KQ its either shove or fold. But since you're in EP, Id fold it.

6. Instacall. You're just above 5BBs here and way ahead of his range(he can be on any 2 here almost)

7. Fold.

8. Fold

9. Im shoving here

These are turbo SNG's, 45man

Hand one I never call. Re raise or fold. You're out of position (against a donk?) If you check to him he's most likely going to bet. If he has a better ace than you and an ace flops you're going to lose chips. So i think re-raisng or folding here is a much better option.

Hes all in preflop with about 4x the starting pot size. I cant reraise

Hand 1: Call. We have an M of...something low. His M is slightly lower, we so crushing his range.

Hand 2: I hate this one. It's debatable, I fold it though.

Hand 3: Sometimes I fold this, and sometimes I raise it. Either way I don't think limping is gonna be the most +ev. Other than that, easy fold.

Hand 4: Once again, we are left with a low M. The way this hand played out, obviously right fold. However, are we losing too much with our vigorish by shoving? Once again, I don't think you can go wrong with either depending on how your table has been playing.

Hand 5: Fold, find a better spot.

Hand 6: Shove

Hand 7: No, don't raise pf with this. Most times just toss it away.

Hand 8: Fold, find a better spot.

Hand 9: If you table is being passive and letting you run it, raise it all day, every day.

Sorry didnt realise. That's an easy call then. He's going to have a bigger hand some of the time but A10 is better than most of his shoving range (as said by others).

You limp way too much.... Haven't throughougly looked over the hands but that's just a general observation I saw..

The only hand I limp is KQ

Misread a couple of hands.. my mistake..
