so i was reviewing my 1.5$ multi table sng hands (18/45 mans) and i found lots of questionable hands that i dont know how to play even after reviewing them. what i struggle with is mostly stack-sizings and different dynamics in tournament formats. any suggestions would be appreciated

hand 1 this is clear mistake right? we only getting called when behind and raise/fold or raise/call seems much better?

    Hero mucked A 7 and won 650 (325 net)

    hand 2 is this too wild to jam instead of doing something else? like i said, i'm having trouble understanding stack-sizings. i know this play would pretty much be ok if our opponent had 5-8 big blinds. but how much does them having 11 bbs change dynamics of the hand?

      hand 3 is this good spot to re-steal jam aggainst someone who has high % steal from btn? can our stack-size afford doing that kind of play preflop? i know post flop is terrible by me. i just wonder if i should have jammed pre.

              Perhaps a mistake in that opening smaller is usually preferable, but you'll make money on the shove.

              Don't think it changes dynamic/playability enough to change our move. It's a good shove, nh.

              Depends how high a steal % and also how often you think he calls your shove. But yes it's an attractive option and has potential to be a good resteal spot preflop.

              Really this is hand 4 Shove preflop.

              Probably can open a bit smaller pre (<300). Suppose it depends on the BB but folding doesn't seem bad as is.

              #1 What AMT said.
              #2 NH. You can argue for minraise or limp, but youll want some reads before doing so.
              #3 Depends on opponent, but generally a nice spot to resteal. Also I think you played postflop perfectly.
              #5 Id also shove this preflop.
              #6 Raise smaller, folding is good.
              #7 Nice hand.

              You played most hands very well. Dont be too hard on yourself.

              I'm interested as to what your range would be in hand 1? Shoving is totally fine like others mentioned but villain dependent.
