    I wouldn't defend from sb with 65o, or 65s fwiw

    And how quickly did u crush nl8 @ nl10 to be at nl20 already!

    In all honesty i actually thought it was only 10p to call. i missed the raise, and thought i could get BB of the hand post flop.

    And i havent just having a day away

    wow this is pretty bad. Fold pre, why do you call?? Don't donk bet flop, now the hand completely changes. The dude had a gutshot for £1.35, on sky he is calling all day everyday and twice on sundays.

    in all honesty as stated above i hadnt realised there was 2 opponents and it had been raised till after my Donk bet on the flop. By then and the call by both i put my other opponent on an over pair maybe 77 88 type hand and id turned two pair, and thought i was good.

    I agree if id realised the raise the pre flop fold would have been made. The BB was playing rather odd and i was getting him off all of his BB so that was my reason for flat call pre to what i thought was 10p v 1 opponent.

    ok, obv you should fold pre and even it were 10p to call you should still fold pre. if you think 56o oop limping in is a profitable play you are seriously  mistaken, basic stuff that these hands play awful oop and you are not going to win big in limped pots or otherwise when your hand becomes so blatant.

    anyways, to the flop, i dont mind donking out as turn cards are always bad for u and you dont want 2 overs checking behind but if you dont take it down on flop its shutdown time unless the turn is an epic 2d or another 6!...that 5c is THE worst card in the deck, ignore the fact you have 2p, it beats nothing other than 77-TT that wanted to control the pot on the flop and hands you do beat are never going to be betting turn or river as like you they want to get to showdown.

    river - wow , this is total spew. what are you expecting to get called by that called flop and turn that you beat? you are turning your hand into a bluff here and hoping to rep straight or flush yourself, which given his turn call he clearly has a good hand such as those

    c/f turn and river.

    +1, fair enough if you want to move up to 5p/10p which is still probably out of your bankroll but less any 2 then the lower two levels. mad first you go up a few levels. not a fan of this play at any level especially when out of your bankroll. come on don back in the box for now dude

    I played spewy yesterday how i managed to make a tenner ill never know.

    In fairness i did half stack so it was like playing NL10 and had built up to over £20 lost this hand and re-built again. I felt like an idiot after it though and once i got back up i  quit for the night.

    Anyways, back to NL8/10 today and work something out
