Default $55s: Am I Missing Pushes?

I folded all of these. Thoughts? My image is good. All hands were folded to me. Still getting adjusted to the tighter calling standards at the 55s.

The A8o is a clear allin.

I usually fold the KJo and the 54o hand.

I go allin with the KTo, but the clearest allin IMO is the A8o.

You fold KJo, but move in with KTo?

With KJo you have 9x the BB, with KTo you have about 5.5x the BB.

u have a long way to go buddy. Cards are only a factor in ur desiton, stacks and postions might be more important than cards.

I think the A8 is a fold. The K10 is push.

The A8o isnt a fold, and it's pretty clearcut.

the blinds are so low. After the blinds you're still going to have 800 chips and perfect stacks to steal from behind you in the blinds. Why push 900 chips into 4 people one of which has 500 chips and could call for that reason and one of which has 4500 chips and could call for that reason.
