It's not weak-tight. Not in my opinion.

No I don't raise JTs either, I fold that in this situation too.

I was wondering that too. It seemed like the forum was mysteriously disappearing. Glad to know my weird suspicions weren't justified.

I don't play the 6 max tournaments, but I'd prefer to limp or fold preflop. There's no reason to build up the pot this early in the tournament and there's no reason to attempt a steal.

As played, fold to the turn bet. The turn card completed both a flush and str8 draw. I can't see hero being good here enough to make this call. Its still early and we have a lot of chips left.

I am no 6-max expert, but I'm folding preflop. If you know these things are weak-tight, than a raise is better than calling. I'd need convincing that folding isn't the best choice.

As played, this is tough. You have a bunch of chips left, so you could fold and still be a factor. A call isn't bad; you'd still have over 1,000 chips at 15/30 blinds. One could justify either decision, although I personally prefer the fold because I'd rather have a deep stack and get it in later in the tourney in a more favorable situation.
