Alright...tell me how much I suck at poker...

Hand 1:
$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
6 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG ($9.50)
UTG+1 ($140.65)
CO ($50.45)
Hero ($68.10)
SB ($49.75)
BB ($56.05)

Flop: ($29.25, 2 players)
UTG+1 bets $29.25, Hero goes all-in $55.35, UTG+1 calls $26.1

Turn: ($139.95, 2 players)

River: ($139.95, 2 players)
Hero says "ouch"

Final Pot: $139.95
UTG+1 shows:
Hero shows:

UTG+1 wins $136.95 ( won +$68.85 )
UTG lost -$3.00
Hero lost -$68.10

The second I got limp raised, I knew something was up. Should I ever fold this?

Hand 2:
$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG ($31.65)
CO ($44.25)
BTN ($110.20)
SB ($86.15)
Hero ($71.35)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is BB
1 fold, CO calls $0.5, 1 fold, SB raises to $2, Hero calls $1.5, CO folds

Flop: ($4.5, 2 players)
SB bets $3.5, Hero calls $3.5

Turn: ($11.5, 2 players)
SB bets $9, Hero calls $9

River: ($29.5, 2 players)
SB bets $22, Hero goes all-in $56.85, SB calls $34.85

Final Pot: $143.20
Hero shows:
SB shows:

Hero wins $140.2 ( won +$68.85 )
CO lost -$0.50
SB lost -$71.35

Was it unintelligent of me to play my hand this way? I figured he had TPTK, and that my outs from the 6s were good. My question is if I knew he had 2pair would this still be a call or a fold on the turn?

Hand 3: Wow...okay. This was played...terribly. Uh...suggestions? Just fold river? Looking back on it I couldn't see him doing this with worse then AK.

Really? In hand one what would you do if you were holding say JJs? I mean, is it really any difference what Overpair you have? Are all people forced to stack?

nutsinho will become famous soon enough
 jacks is merely a bluff catcher so its a bit different.
My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.
