MP2 is a calling station, and BB thinks he's mistah supastah poker pro and check raises any pair.
does this change anything.

it doesn't matter who they are, i generally don't like betting underpairs.
in this situation, 46 out of 52 cards are scare cards...i don't like those odds

The pot is microscopic and any 2 broadways have a pair or gutshot (which they will call with reguardless of pot odds, but it's not really a HORRIBLE call.) To put it another way, your hand sucks and there is no reason to get involved here. I admire your mad river skillz.

i find im picking up alot of loose pots on tables like this.
everyone limped, i bet, everyone folds
i guess i dont see how one small bet is a waste if you might pick it up 40% of the time.
the amount of people in the pot does change things, but only 2 other villains, im not too worried.
then again i do have an ultra high aggression rating.. i have a decent sense of when im beat... the calls on my flop bet told me i was beat, so i checked along the turn.. caught my lucky 2 outer, and pillaged the idiot who slow plays and checkraises any hand.

I have been out of 10handed for a while.
I'd fold 33 pre-flop from UTG+1 on almost all tables.
In 6handed I'd raise

highly passive table, nobody raises, except maybe two to 3 players might raise when they have AA KK AK

I call at a full table (if the texture is loose/passive enough) and muck at a short-handed table. 55-22 play are very tough to play without a set and many good shorthanded players have said they are net losers. Hence I would only open them from the CO/Button or defend with them (figuring I lose less than my blind.)

If you're getting away with it that often, sure go for it. I'll bet any 2 with a read. However, I don't think tweedle-dumb and tweedle-stupid fold here often enough.

Everything is different here.
o You are repping big cards via your pre-flop action
o It's heads-up to the flop
o The pot is bigger
o You have a gutshot and a Jack might be good too.

What I'm saying is don't bet into small pots with a weak hands against 2+ players who will often call. Against passive players, what information have you gained by betting? Their calling behavior protects them perfectly from these plays. On the other hand, they're extremely vulnerable to playing "fit or fold" in unraised pots because they're giving too much action. This is how the rocks make their money.

Hand 1, if you arent folding preflop you have to check/fold the flop here. EVERY card beats you here.
Hand 2, what did you expect? to yourself you have a pair of jacks but with all those broadways you are most definatly repping cards a lot higher.

It's close and depends highly on the table texture. If you played 22-66 UTG every time at worst it will cost you a few cents.

This bet is ok if you are on the button and they have all checked to you. No flush draw on the board, and they have already shown weakness. If on the button, you will probably pull a free river card too.
In EP - check/fold.
