Default Does Anybody Like This; or Am I Wasting My Time?

The BB was very straight-forward. Big raises and big bets mean big hands. I would NOT do this out of position.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $26.85
CO: $7.65
MisterWeaktight: $46.20
SB: $12.95
BB: $54.30

Pre-flop: (5 players) MisterWeaktight is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MisterWeaktight raises to $1</font>, SB folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $3.1</font>, MisterWeaktight calls.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($6.3, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets $2</font>, MisterWeaktight calls.

Turn: 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($10.3, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">MisterWeaktight bets $5.75</font>

Preflop no, because you're so easily dominated.
Postflop yes, because he'll fold most PPs.

With this solid of a read I see no problem floating his weak flop lead or the pre flop call in position..You could also put in a semi bluff raise on the flop..After he checks on the turn I think you need to bet more like a PSB of $8-10 and based on your read this should get the job done..Obviously letting it go to a check raise..

For this to work, raise more on the turn. However, if you read is solid, then this works. But I suggest laying this hand down pf.

Based on OP read why would you fold PF??? We will know exactly where we stand based on his bet size and can get away cheaply should we be dominated...Also based on OP read it sound like the villain is on the weak side and give up easily should his PP miss..

The preflop call looks fine to me, given your position and villain being so easily readable. But I think a raise on the flop would be better here.

What if villain bets again on turn? Do we fold or raise? If we decide to raise on the turn it is going to cost us a lot more than a raise on flop.
