Default Adjusting to a new limit (hand post)

Moved up today from the passive Party 1/2 6-max, and I was pretty uncomfortable with all these hands. They all happened within my first 90 hands, and I suspect I made some bad mistakes. I'd appreciate comments on any of the hands.

<font color="blue">Same villain as in hand 2. I wasn't sure between calling down from the turn or raising the turn. Bad river fold? </font>
