Hand 1: A6 sooted UTG is iffy, even as chip leader and 4 handed. But if you do play it, I thought you played it fine.

Hand 2: Nothing you can do there, unless the limp from the SB set off alarms in your head. Player dependent read.

Yea, as I had no read, I thought I had to move in.

You have 8.5ish BBs on the first hand. I'd be all-in or fold mode. Which you chose would depend on the borderline. I'd feel much happier about this hand on the button, it does make a difference. I push this hand more often than not at the 200 level, but I'm not sure the calling requirements at this level. People where I play normally muck AJo when its for their entire stack on the bubble.

Hand 2 is peftect. Oh well, whatcha gonna do?

This was a 50 + 5 on Party. I thought it was borderline all in or fold, so I decided for the 3x raise. Raising to 1000 and folding to an all in by the #2 only stack might have been OK.
