2 folds, Hero raises to $1.50, BTN folds, SB raises to $5, BB calls $4.50, Hero raises to $16.25, SB folds, BB calls $11.25

Flop: ($37.50) 5 8 6 (2 players)
BB checks,

We have no information on our opponents. The only information about BB is his stack size.

Questions are:
1) What sizing should i use preflop? (I`m going with the hand obv.)
2) How we plan our hand on such board texture? What options we have?

Hi,

For Pre flop raise size - Usually it's (total number of players in the hand) x 3betted amount, so in this case it's 3x5=15.

Flop - this board is very bad for our hand and definitely does not hit our range. At the same time it hits their range very well. I'll check and give up this hand here. And even if we hit top pair on the turn I'll only bet once for value and fold to check raises. Maybe I'll call a small donk bet since we beat his missed Broadway range.

Thanks
