I think I played this hand as about as bad as I could have possbily done.

Please critique.

1. What would you have done preflop? Push, complete the SB or fold?

2. How about the flop? Should I push, bet, or check?

3. How about the turn? Should I call, push or fold?

4. Finally, the river. Would you have checked, bet or pushed?

Preflop is very read dependent. I'd probably push the flop. Turn looks fine to me. I'd check/call the river.

Edit: I'd just add that pushing over the limp PF is also an attractive offer - again, read dependant

Im all in almost every time here. You have only 6.5XBB. Not getting a call will increase your stack by 30%, and you should not be a drastic underdog too often if called.

I'm not sure that pushing pre-flop is a great idea. UTG is the big-stack, and he's already shown a bit of interest in the hand by calling. I've tried to reduce my pushes when there are already limpers and open-push more often. (I play the 10+1s and they'll often call your push after limping in)
