I think my call on 4th was a bit loose
On 5th I think it was correct to call when both were obviously going high
6th and 7th were simply a matter of maximizing the value from the hand

I would fold 3rd because your hand has almost no high potential and fairly marginal low potential. I think the call on 4th is fine with a pair and back door draws in both directions. 5th is fine. 6th and 7th I wouldn't just call and try to reraise, I would raise when the bet got to me. There's no reason to risk the other guy just calling. If he's going to raise, then he's at least calling two bets. If he isn't raising, let him make a crying call for 2 bets rather than one, and give the other player a chance to make it 3 bets, so you can cap.

With 3 low to a 7, 2 of them suited to a completly live flush I think it worth a call.
On 6th midnightrunner capped 5th so I was hoping he will bet again
