Hows about a double barrel?--OESD
 

Disregarding the preflop hand choice (which I think is ok from position every once and a while with many limpers), how's about firin the turn? Many villains call the flop with any 2 overs at 5NL. Double barrel feelin yay or nay?

At this level, villain holds 2 random over cards more often than a flush or straight draw. They almost always call a c-bet because, after all, they can still hit a pair!

First of all, my discussion about calling stations on the flop has nothing to do with my PFR. Widening your range in these spots can be +EV when you hit big. If I miss terribly its an easy c/f.

Second, the implied odds if we hit the straight are very good. Say villain has Ax and he calls my 2 barrel, followed by an A dropping on the river. He thinks he has made the best hand, I bet hard (sometimes more than full pot), he insta calls and I fist pump. If he calls my turn bet and I miss, losing the hand, then I have lost much less than I would have potentially made had I hit.

+EV, imo. Keep in mind you can overbet made hands at 5NL and find a caller often. You can't compare my argument at 5NL with what you think would happen at 25NL+.
