Hello Par2005,

I would suggest you stick to the 4bb+1bb p/limper so you have to raise it up to $0.6 preflop.

As played , I think your c-bet is too low postflop, I prefer the standard push because you have to bet $0.75 as a c-bet while your remaining stack is $1.5
Also, the paired board is a Jack so it is highly unlikely that he has a Jack, so pushing here gives you the most bang for your bucks :)

Turn + River should be check/folded accordingly

Please remove the results in your future sample hands, thank you :)

Best regards,
Gerv
