Hand #1 - Cold 4betting Queens 40bb Deep

Standard.
Looks good. I sometimes lead out on turn with just a
, as some
s with a pair peel and fold to river bets. However, here you have showdown value, so check calling makes sense.
This is a hard one. His check-raise is pretty strong. He can have JQ, KT, 22, & AK, KQ kind of hands & diamonds with or without a pair. I thought this was close, but playing with Flopzilla, at best we have 45% equity. If we filter out top pairs, then this is a clear fold.
Not folding, easy call
Hand #5 - Just calling 3 streets with flopped nut straight vs UTG raiser

This is a botched hand, IMHO. You lost a lot of value here. I would re-raise pre, bet flop is good, re-raise turn and get it in.
Flop hits pretty hard to the raiser range. People have two pair, top pair, straight draws etc. Just go for value.
This depends on original raiser's tendencies. If he's stealing a lot, I would push here and isolate.
Pre-flop looks good. You can check flop here with the stack sizes. As played, I would check turn and re-evaluate on the river.
You are opening late position and SB is probably thinking that you are stealing. 88 is a strong hand here vs. the shove range. I would call.
I raise pre. As played, seems fine to me.
