Here are a few hands I had trouble with recently. 30+3 on party.

Hand no.1
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

SB (t640)
Hero (t815)
UTG (t1160)
UTG+1 (t1272)
MP1 (t1430)
MP2 (t1373)
MP3 (t635)
CO (t455)
Button (t220)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t30, MP1 calls t30, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t120) 2/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t60</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t120</font>, MP1 folds, SB folds, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t300

folding to the min raise really hurt me inside here, should I call and then check fold to a reasonable bet on the turn unimproved or what?

Hand no.2

Flop: (t1425) 4/images/graemlins/club.gif, 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Turn: (t1425) Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t1425) 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t1425

I thought about this hand for awile, and as it seems to be when im multi tabling, when I have a desision I usually just push. So what is the correct play here?

<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t2760 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button folds.

Final Pot: t3660

Should I have just folded on this flop or was it correct to draw to 6 outs and the cheap showdown possibility?

thanks in advance.

1) I think your play is correct. Maybe I check here and see what happens, but bet/folding is probably good.
2) Could always do this, especially multitabling. I normally raise to t150, but I suppose pushing isn't bad.
3) Reads... Can Button fold this? Is button raising crap here?
4) So what? 5.5:1 on a 6 outer? Meh, it's not a 6 outer, there are reverse implied odds hitting your ace... Meh, I fold.

Hand 1:
Check the flop. Theres really no draws out there so see what happens. Betting out isn't horrible but I think you do have to fold to this minraise.

Hand 2: Raise to 150 from utg here.

Hand 3: Standard.

Hand 4: Check fold the flop.

didnt have any reads on him, just noticed he raised the minimum and it looked like a great situation to pick up an extra 1050 chips.
