Default Did I Miss Any Pushable Hands?

All from $11 SNG. I often feel like I miss opportunities to push. Here are some hands where I am not sure if I might have missed such an opportunity. I feel that this is a weak part of my game and I'm trying to identify spots where you push with any two or push in late position where it is folded to you. Please give me your advice.


Hand #1:

They all look like folds to me except hand 2. I'm pushing K5s here.

Hands 2+3 are clear pushes to me, with hand 2 being the most obvious. The others seem like folds at first glance.

Agreed.

The K5s hand is a super easy push.

The Q4s hand is just one of those its better than folding pushes, where you just close your eyes and put your chips out there.
