Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.02/$0.05 No-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Known players:
[tg]MP3$5.12:///////;CO$2.02:///////;BU$2.79:///////;SB (Hero)$5.00:///////;BB$3.96:///////;MP2$3.75:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is SB with J:c, J:d.
4 folds, Hero raises to $0.20, BB calls $0.15.

Flop: ($0.4) 5:s, K:s, 8:s (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $0.30, Hero calls $0.30.

Turn: ($1) 5:d (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $1.05, Hero raises to $4.50, BB folds, Hero gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $2.05.

Should I cbet the flop? If I get called should I 2nd barrel the turn with the 5? I mostly asking the reverse approach to this hand as I don t like the way I played it.

BB stats: 50/1/1.6(highest value on the turn 2.3)/Ftocbet 50%(4)/72 hands

Hello Sikac,

Don't turn your hand into bluff-catcher! Especially against that kind of opponent I don't like your play at all. It's just horrible. :( Rather Bet/Fold yourself than pick such a horrible line while you rarely will even have fold equity against made hands.

Best Regards.

So you think the best play in this occassion is to bet/fold both streets. And barrells 2/3 ~ 75% of the pot, right?

Why 2 streets? While he even seems to be rather loose-passive I'd just Bet/Fold the turn and then most likely give up my mid-pair on such a board. Of course his range is going to be wide but our hand isn't that strong either.
