[Closed] Calling down on the river with second pair?

Call flop, check turn, call river assuming that the bet will be less because the pot is smaller. Only better hands call you on the flop if you raise, and you commit yourself.

Oh you should be raising preflop if you want to play btw, you don't really have the the implied to just limp.

fold preflop, or raise preflop. Calling MP is asking for trouble. Impossible to judge postflop now imo.

raise preflop. as played, wp imo.

sometimes BB has a worse Q here, but usually it's 2pair+

know these guys are pretty bad on these levels and totaly agree about folding pre flop but one question about flop

pot 300 3 players ) BB bets 200 for hero to call makes pot 700 and on higher levels like the $27sng would you raises close to pot ie raises 800/900 to take down the pot
as for raising 600 his opponent is getting close to 3-1 for his money

not really necessary to raise pot imo. i'm aware a 3x raise (to 600) doesn't really offer protection, due to the odds our opponent is getting, but you don't really want to be scared of what he could have...

that and, against 5 outs, assuming he has second pair or something here, we are still protecting enough with a raise to 600.

Thanks for the help
