raise more preflop, around $1.25.

on the flop if you're gonna c-bet, make it potsized. i would fold to his minraise here, but again, if you're going to 3bet, you need to raise it to around $6. as played i'd probably fold the turn, i don't think BB is very strong but he's probably got your ace high gutshot beaten.

This is a mess. Any reads?

I raise to $1 pf (being a nit, I know)

C-bet the flop for $1.50 - $2

Either call the flop raise or fold, depending on how comfortable you are playing the rest of the hand OOP.

The min re-raise is pretty horrible. You are building a pot OOP where you are likely behind and have no FE.

Turn fold is fine.

Nope, no read. Havent played much on party and its such a big site so Im usually facing 5 to 9 unknown players every time I sit down at a table there.

If you C-bet this flop make it pot sized. Fold to a raise, you are drawing very slim.
