(Just for fun you can at least see how a novice thinks. QF tells me I have these actions reversed, but in order to apply QF you have to have an idea of what the technically right play is to begin with.)

In my limited experience with low stakes LV cash NHL I've noticed that many players are in their standard "I brought $300 and I'm leaving with $3000 or nothing" mode.

For hand 2, the scary hands could/would/should? be played differently. That may be worth less in this low stakes game but it's still worth something. You're getting pretty decent odds and even in the worst case you (of course) will have outs. I would call.

Hand 3: "Standard" advice (from what I know) says you don't try and bluff five opponents. Again you might be up against a set or two pair. The $60 all-in smells like a tourist who told his/her spouse he'll meet her at a certain time and that time is up. It also looks like a huge overbet. There's still one hand behind you to act although this isn't typically the kind of flop you'd worry about that with (IMO). Still it's not good odds and all you have is top pair. ('Course that's all you had in hand #2.) Harrington&Robertie said something about saving your big bets for big hands. I reluctantly fold.
