Hand 1: I'm on the small blind villian straddles. Everytime he straddles he pops it way up. Effective stacks 185.
Hero dealt qq five limpers hero just calls knowing utg will pop it. Villian pops it to 20 and gets three callers. Pot is 87 I make it 110 to go. Villian calls everyone else folds pot is now 307. Flop is 3 7 k rainbow. Hero checks villian shoves for last 75 hero calls. Villian shows kj scoops the pot. Can't fold this here correct?

Hand 2 exactly same setup one orbit later. Hero on small blind with AdKd. 5 limpers hero raises to 25 utg shoves for my last 150. Hero calls flops aces scoops pot.

Hand 3 Next hand. Hero has AA raises to 25 one tourist calls who has 100 dollars left . Flop 2 3 8 rainbow. Villian cecks hero bets 50 villian shoves for last 50 hero calls villian shows 88 for a set of 8s.

Hand 4 very next hand. Hero on the button with AK 4 limpers ahead makes it 20 to go. guy who just sat down
Shoves his last 80 in hero calls villian shows AA and scoops the pot.
Hand 5 two hands later hero's image is now that of on tilt. Hero dealt 99 in the cutoff 3 limpers including one whale hero raises 20 whale calls and one other new player in first hand calls. Flop is 2 3 6 rainbow. Whale first to act bets 25 new guy calls hero shoves for last 100. Both players call. Turn and river are blanks and new guy shows 10 10 and scoops. whale mucks.
Where did I go wrong in these hands?

sounds like a bad day, and all sound very standard, to me anyway.

I'd play them all the same way and expect to profit more that IM lose

That you think they're not super standard.

All of these hands are extremely super standard and bad sessions do happen.

Hand 1: Doesn't change anything but since you couldn't fold anyways you should have shoved the flop yourself. No reason to let hands like 78 or A5 get a free card.

Hand 2: Standard. If villain will always raise his straddle then limp/raise is fine also.

Hand 3: Bog standard unavoidable situation.

Hand 4: Against a know villain you might be able to get away from this, against an unknown it's a standard high variance spot.

Hand 5: Probably a bit tilted but your play isn't really bad. When there is a bet and call in front of you on the flop it's a question of making a read and going with it. I would lean fold but it's close to a toss up if shove or fold is better.

Mostly std but I'm curious about stack sizes in hand 1. Who had $187? I realize you were betting into the field so if you were deep with some of them I get it. If you however had $187 I don't like sizing of your pf raise leaving $75 behind when called. If you're never folding villain is freerolling for the balance of your stack.

Sometimes these things happen.

Sorry for the beats, OP, but it happens. In the future, please post one hand per post, and don't post the results. Just post up to the decision you're not sure about and stop there with a question.
