Default Should i have called/raised?

So BB raises and I'm confident I can put him on a strong hand possible high Pocket pair and I call just to try and outplay him.
His insta shove on flop lead me to believe that my two pair was good. Right decision, marginal or depends on your read on the player?

I know i got lucky... Which certainly doesn't happen often.

I suppose in micro stakes there's no point in trying to outplay your opponent?
I miss i fold i hit I have a chance of taking all his money.

[/ QUOTE ]You have 65o and one person is in pot with three to act. That's about all that needs to be said.

On a scale of [censored] to Marginal what would you rate the preflop call.
And how much of a difference would it have made if i was on button or if it was suited?

suited adds about a 4 percent advantage to your hand. Also being in position with more callers gives you great implied odds. With one caller, your implied odds are terrible and your position sucks. So on your scale, its [censored] (being very bad...).
