IMO there is no "correct" way to play these type of situations. Each player has their own specific style. Personally I'm limping/completing in almost all of these, sometimes raising depending on what I feel like. For most of these folding is the only action that I would consider bad.

yea i hate preflop stuff like this. its hands like this where i hope someone pushes before me so i can fold knowing i didnt make a mistake.

play it weak then. Limp in example 1, complete in example 2, etc. If you aren't comfortable don't raise in places like example two which would put you OOP in a raised pot with what is usually K high.

Like Newt_Buggs said, most is your own style. I would play them:

1. raise
2. limp (and calling a small raise)
3. raise
4. limp
5. push (although i dont know if this will work at the 55's)
6. raise

In anyone besides hand 5 i think a fold is really bad.

What they said, but I do think 4 is an easy call, 5 is an easy push.
