Both the blinds were tight, 20/5. This villain was less aggro post flop, the one who folded is very aggro

I've been experimenting with smaller openings from the button, hence 3BB opener. I shouldn't be worried about meta-game cuz no one is really paying attention and I know this. Personal for those keeping track at home. I'll mention this in my weak-ass blog.

Anyway, I've been gun-shy, especially donk bets bigger than 1bb. So I freeze...

2 folds, Hero raises to $1.5, SB calls $1.25, BB calls $1.

Flop: ($4.50) 8, 5, 6 (3 players)
SB checks, BB bets $1.5, Hero calls $1.50, SB folds.

BB bets $2.5, Hero calls $2.50.

River: ($12.50) 6 (2 players)
BB bets $3.5, Hero calls $3.50.

I know it's bullshit, but I felt like I would get 3bet if I raised on the flop, that would make me wanna puke.
Turn , I was going to bet $5 if he checked FWIW
River, I see no point in raising here
