Hand 1: fold the turn. These players don't bluff that much.
Hand 2 isn't too bad.
3: okay
4: weird. good, don't give free cards.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

Hand 1: 0.5/1 players aren't usually this aggressive without a real hand. Your hand sucks. Fold the turn.

Hand 2: Check this flop, betting doesn't really accomplish anything.

Hand 3: Looks good.

Hand 4: Hate the preflop limp. I'd check/raise the turn.

Hand 2, I don't like raising AJo from the SB with so many limpers

Hand 3, I would fold preflop, but with 2 limpers, it isn't a huge mistake to limp.

Hand 4, gotta fold it preflop. Yes, even at .50/1, if you don't get enough dead money, you can't play speculative hands.
