Seems fine to me. You are going to get callers at 2NL so get your chips in.

Pre-flop, when you have a strong hand and there is a raise ahead of you, if the initial raiser had a decent stack then the rule of thumb is to reraise 3x his initial raise.
The idea is to isolate the initial raiser and play the pot heads up after the flop with you in position. After the flop your play was fine. |

cont.
If there are limpers in front of you rather than a raiser, then the rule of thumb is to raise 3xBB+1/limper. The idea here is to punish weak players for limping and trap their dead money in the pot. Sweet, delicious dead money... |

Pre-preflop: Reload
Preflop: I'd make it about 0.14 Flop: I'd actually raise a little less because the flop is fairly dry. |

Niediam, I've started with medium-short stack of 60BB, because this is what PNLHE vol 1 recommends for beginners. As I gain experience I will play with a deeper stack, sure don't want to become one of those scum of the earth, short-stackers!

3. "BB raises to $1.8, UTG folds, Hero calls $0.57 (All-In).
