Hello all, I have been lurking around here for a while now...decided I should probably start posting more. Here is the first hand I'd like some feedback on.

Cryptologic 0.15/0.25 Hold'em <font color="#0000FF">(10 handed)</font> link

BB ($23.10)
UTG ($16.50)
UTG+1 ($35.25)
UTG+2 ($26.55)
MP1 ($36.77)
Hero ($63.75)
MP3 ($24.60)
CO ($16.45)
Button ($17.00)
SB ($55.80)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to $0.50</font>, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, Hero calls, MP3 calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $1.50</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Hero calls, MP3 calls, CO calls.

Flop: (57.67 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero ?


Had I been CO or button, I probably would have raised this pot pf. I am looking for discussion on preflop &amp; flop. I can't see calling the 0.50 and folding for the 1$? Nor folding to the 0.50$. So maybe preflop is ok? Perhaps raising the 0.50? But with 5 behind me?

On the flop....this is my real question. Interested to hear opinions on lines here, and the positives/negatives of them.

thanks!
