Hi,
The flop didnt look like something that had hit him. Turn I call behind for potcontrol (which you guys might say I had to fold? :P )
The river brings a scarecard and I bluff him out.

Is this a good or a very bad/dangerous play?
And do you have any pointers on how to play pp with a board like this one on the flop?

Thanks,
Leo

c/f turn


Even such a small raise?

i c/f flop here.

the whole idea of playing mid pocket pairs is you win a big pot with them when you pick up a set.

i definitely do not limp in on the button and make a potsized bet behind on the flop with 2nd pair...

I like preflop and flop. Regarding hero's stack I fold on the turn. As played I would't bet the river. The only hand you might bring to fold is a 9x.

C/F turn, or raise the Turn, if he has a 9 you might get it to fold here, more likley than if you call the turn and bet the river
