elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
I only have opinions on 2 hands, numbers 4 and 5 as I think all other were played optimally.

Number 4, I fold preflop. KJo is a junk hand, no matter how you look at it and you really are just trying to steal the blinds from UTG. If you get a caller, you're behind, if you get raised, you're fucked and likely dominated. I fold Offsuit Junk Broadways in EP, they are break even at best and will save you lots of variance. Hands like QJo, KJo, QTo, KTo and worse are just asking from trouble from EP and even ATo I'm finding is sucking ass more and more I play it. I'm even questioning the profitability of raising it on the button after a field of limpers. Sorry fanatic and demi, I didn't even bother reading your guy's arguments, but who ever said to fold KJo preflop is right.

Hand 5 I think was played way too weak as has already been said. No reason to not lead the turn here.
