Default Weird Preflop, decent odds, but is this stupid?

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.05/$0.10 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $18.35
Hero (BB): $10.65
UTG: $7.90
MP: $31.65
CO: $6.00
BTN: $1.60

Preflop: Hero is dealt T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG calls $0.10, MP folds, CO checks, BTN calls $0.10, <font color="red">SB raises to $0.30</font>, Hero calls $0.20, UTG calls $0.20, CO calls $0.20, <font color="red">BTN raises all-in to $1.60</font>, SB calls $1.30, Hero calls $1.30, UTG calls $1.30, CO calls $1.30

Im new to the table and have never went to showdown. SB kept making these small raises very donk like, and I felt like he would do that with a hand like AJo. If he really did that with AA or KK, he would have pushed after the short stack went in. When everyone limped, I thought that there was no way anyone would reraise here. Obv playing for set value. Does this make sense, or is this retarded?

I didnt feel like a 3bet is great there because with all the limpers, I would end up playing a 3 bet flop with about 4 people OOP

have you 3-bet before and got 4-callers? Calling in this spot is just -EV/spew IMO.

I have to agree that you definitely need to 3-bet pre-flop here.

I think you may be right, but without a doubt I have 3 bet here and got 3 callers. This is 10nl. Here is a great example that just happened while I was typing this:

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.05/$0.10 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $4.95
BB: $4.30
UTG: $7.60
Hero (MP): $13.15
CO: $12.90
BTN: $2.95

Preflop: Hero is dealt T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG calls $0.10, <font color="red">Hero raises to $0.50</font>, CO calls $0.50, <font color="red">BTN raises to $1.00</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to $1.50</font>, BB calls $1.40, 2 folds, CO calls $1.00, <font color="red">BTN raises all-in to $2.95</font>, <font color="red">SB raises all-in to $4.95</font>, BB folds, CO calls $3.45

Flop: ($14.95) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players - 2 All-In)

Turn: ($14.95) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players - 2 All-In)

River: ($14.95) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players - 2 All-In)

Pot Size: $14.95 ($0.70 Rake)

BTN had J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (a pair of Jacks) and WON (+$7.50)
SB had 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (a pair of Sevens) and LOST (-$1.15)
CO had 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and LOST (-$4.95)

Note the calling of the 4 bet by the BB and then the fold for less than 2 more. Poker is great.
