    This hand is crazy.

    Raise to minimum of 20p pre.

    Your letting junk hands like 7 3 get in for cheap and letting them outdraw you.

    The way the hand is played you have to raise river.

    By the looks of it your just calling flop, turn and river to hit a 5.

    Play more ABC at NL4.

    raise pre

    fold flop

    fold turn

    I like the river though!

    Defo raise pre, can't fathom why you wouldn't 4 handed, but just like 12p to build pot a little if you hit set.

    Flop snap fold.

    Same turn.

    River, nice two outer but kinda serves you right after playing first 3 streets so badly.

    yeah UTG low prs - sometimes flat, sometimes raise - both are fine
    Flop snap fold.
    Some draws here and underpairs so finks i can c/c one street
    Same turn.
    shoulda folded or bluff raised here tbh, just calling to hit 5 - this is bad )

    lol, I am raising here for value v 7's / flush/straight - but when he shoves on me I can fold here can't I
    No way he doing this with anything less than a FH. Obviously I called because I am a station, plus I was hoping A7 diamonds would be lovely )

    On flop one player bets and another calls I'd imagine at least one has you beat here.

    I am just not that tight to fold on flop I guess )
    Turn really told me I was beat so either rep a 7 or fold ) so bad to call

    TBH at this level I don't mind the limp pre with small PP. Get in cheap but when you miss on the flop you have to let go. 

    You've a bet & a call in front of you on the flop & I can guarantee 100% that even if one of them is bluffing the other has AT LEAST an 8 in his hand which means you're way behind. I don't think you can float to try & take it away at this level (I presume that was your plan?), even more so if you rate your oppo as a decent player.

    Open raise to 16p pre flop (to build pot if you hit a set). Most fish will call a 16p raise with the same cards that they will limp in with and many fish will call from the big blind with ATC. If he is a reg he folds 73o. When you don't hit on the flop snap fold to any bet (even a 4p bet).

    Pocket pairs below tens are set mines at NL4. If you hit your set then you can make money, if you miss the flop you make an easy - and cheap - fold.

    As played you have to call the all in on the river, you have a full house. You could easy be up against a flush or trips.

    The problem with calling flop is even if we are ahead we are going to have to fold too often on later streets readless

    Maybe, but this isnt the spot for it 3way in a limped pot with 55
