I'm such a fish. 4 hands @ $50NL

Re: I'm such a fish. 4 hands @ $50NL
Hand 1: Fine.
Hand 2: Hands he does this with? Jx, smallish-mid PPs that figure to have you beat on the flop. 44-88, wouldn't surprise me at all figure he'd raise TT+, and 2 unsuited broadways. Might be ahead here.
Hand 3: Am I missing something? Why fold the flop with overpair QQ on a 2 flushed board against a 1/2 pot bet? If you're THAT sure he had AA/KK with the tiny reraise preflop, ok fold the flop, but I fold that flop or turn just about never and push over for his last ~$5.
Hand 4: I tend to prefer to float the flop instead of reraising when I think guys are c-betting, but thats me. As played its an obv fold, nothing really odd about it.
