Default A few hands and first day results

First day of playing 50 30+3 tournaments a day I drop exactly 10 buy ins to finish off the day at -20% ROI. Assuming I am a 10% ROI player this should happen about 1 in 10 days. I was really hoping to get off to a decent start as a +ROI helps my confidence alot, sadly it is not to be. Tommarow is another day, and in the meantime, could one of u guys give me a little help on these 2 hands?

Hand #1

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) converter

BB (t1270)
UTG (t700)
MP1 (t745)
MP2 (t2495)
CO (t1123)
Button (t675)
Hero (t992)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t50, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t150) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t100</font>, BB calls t100, MP2 calls t100.

Turn: (t450) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets t100</font>, Hero calls t100, BB calls t100.

River: (t750) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets t200</font>, Hero calls t200, BB folds.

Final Pot: t1150

I won this hand, but I think I should have folded, at what point should I have dumped this hand? Also does anybody check this flop or fold pre flop?

Hand #2

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

BB (t1845)
UTG (t4970)
Button (t360)
Hero (t825)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t400</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

Final Pot: t700

So should I have folded this? hmm upon reveiw I think this is a push, but I dont know, anyone want to enlighten me?

Default Re: A few hands and first day results

hand 1: I hate calling off that much of your stack, but hes giving you too good of odds to fold on the turn. I think you can fold the river after he bets again when he got 2 callers on the turn.

Hand 2: I think i fold here
