Pre Flop: (1.5 SB) Hero is BB with 7 :club: K :diamond:
2 folds, SB raises, Hero calls

Flop: (4 SB) 6 :diamond: 8 :diamond: 6 :spade: (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls

Turn: (3 BB) 9 :diamond: (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

I checked the turn here, since I wasn't very afraid of a diamond and I wanted to see the free card he gave me. I have VERY hard time with these decisions, they are basically my weakest point in the game, I don't know what to do on the turn! But my biggest problem is that I don't know what to look for. I mean, can you help me set up a typical equity or EV calculation you would do here?

Do you raise everything for value on the flop? or do you have a split value range here? I find these spots really difficult aswell. Even worse when youre in the SB's spot.

I'd probably check. It depends on the player, but few better hands are folding right away and I'm not that concerned about giving free cards to worse hands since we have a million outs and the pot is not yet very big.

I can imagine a weakly played A high or small pp in the hands of the SB, who is afraid of getting raised (the board kind of invites to a raise), but has not given up completely yet.

If I fire, I'll fire all rivers as well, either for value, or to make A high and perhaps small pp fold.

Think the only hands to bet here are 54 and 74 or something, cause the range is so messed up. The only valuehands you have here are paired 9s straights and flushes and not alot of combos of em. But that was from expekting you to raise all value hands and q-high or worse fd/oesd on the flop.

Was wondering how it would work with a delay everything to the turn-strategy on this flop...
