Am I leaky?

Here are several hands I marked as potential leaks during a run of SNGs. Im curious to know if they seem like leaks or just bad luck.

This first one I ended up with a free play in the blind against a solid player. He tricked me into thinking my queen with a weak kicker was good when I had no chance.

This next one I try to steal and then fire another barrel at a ragged flop and get called. Having resolved to do so in advance, I give up on the turn for a tiny bet. Bad fold? Bad steal?

Alright.. last one. I limp in middle position with T9s. Is this a leaky play in itself? Anyways . . I catch a gutshot w/ 2 overcards.. which is fairly strong hand according to HPFAP. So I play it agressively and end up losing a good chunk of my nice stack and then go on to make the dreaded 4th:
