    Default can/should i call this?

    Not too much of a read on SB only sown down 2 hands, but seemed to try and bluff in similar situations.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 ($3.75)
    MP3 ($15.25)
    CO ($16.45)
    Button ($56.10)
    SB ($31.80)
    Hero ($32.50)
    UTG ($31.85)
    UTG+1 ($9.50)
    MP1 ($9.85)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 6, 6.
    6 folds, Button calls $0.25, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($0.75) 3, 4, 5 (3 players)
    SB bets $0.55, Hero raises to $2, Button folds, SB calls $1.45.

    Turn: ($4.75) T (2 players)
    SB bets $4, Hero calls $4.

    River: ($12.75) Q (2 players)
    SB bets $8, Hero folds.

    Final Pot: $20.75

    After the hand he told me what he had i'll post that later.

    On this next hand how much do I raise with multi-action is this good?

    Hand 1 I would fold on the turn, you now have second pair and are behind any pocket pair except for 22. You have 2 outs to a set, but I dont think Id count them as full outs because it puts 4 to a straight on the board. You also have 4 outs to a straight, but it isnt the nut straight. So you really dont have many clean outs and on the turn you need to call essentially a PSB, Id fold here, and definitely fold the river as played.

    Hand 2 is a situation I need a little work on, but I think raising somewhere between $4 and $5 is "standard," definitely not too much.

    1 - SB compelted and there was no raise preflop which makes putting a range on him simple impossible here; without reads. I would probably just dump the turn..

    2 - I think 20x bb preflop is a bit too much to raise with AA. Unless I had a read that the table calls very loose preflop (which could be the case in 25nl) I wouldn't go so high. You are basically shouting your hand out. You do want action with it. $3.5 - $4 is probably as high as I would go.

    ok so in this first hand the read i had on the SB wasn't great but i was pretty sure i was ahead after the flop and turn the river bet was really the only time i thought he had a hand and even then it took me a while to lay this down. Against most players you are right and i would fold this on the turn but i still did not think had anything. When he bet the river i finally decided he must have something to if he is leading the turn after a re-raise on the flop and then leading the river i wouldn't expext a bluff to make this bet. He ended up sayin he had Kd 6d. I just find it really hard to call off bluffs, any advice on that i would really appreciate, thanks.

    At this level I would focus more on betting your made hands rather than calling off bluffs.
