 1. Villain was jus a typical donk - limper - short - stacker that I'd been isolating. Posting this mainly cos of the bizzareness of this line. Can we fold here? Btw I'm short stacked due to the previous hand and had no time to reload.

No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB ($25)
UTG ($16.70)
MP ($14)
CO ($13.35)
Button ($35.30)
Hero (SB) ($17.55)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9, 9
1 fold, MP calls $0.25, 2 folds, Hero raises $1.40, 1 fold, MP calls $1.25

Flop: ($3.25) 5, J, 8 (2 players)
Hero bets $2.20, MP calls $2.20

Turn: ($7.65) 6 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP checks

River: ($7.65) 3 (2 players)
Hero bets $4, MP raises $8

Total pot: $15.65

Now for a couple of squeezes; are these okay?

UTG here was 17/11 over like 60 hands and on the weak/tight/passive side. The short stacks are jus typical donks thatplay way too many hands (badly).

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q, A
UTG raises $1, MP (poster) calls $0.75, CO (poster) calls $0.75, 2 folds, Hero raises $5.45

Total pot: $4.10

3. UTGs pretty laggy running at 26/19, button is a TAG. I'm newish at the table not really done a lot yet.

Hand 1:
i dont like raising a donk limper here.calling station he is,we will going to have trouble playing 99 oop if it come overs.
limping is fine here.i would cbet less too.
micro stakes-cbet less,value bet more

Hand 2:
Ur squeeze size is huge,i would but 3.75-4.25
I think its ok,but what is UTG raising range here?

Hand 3:
26/19 i believe is not big enough to be considered Laggy.Then against 3.50-4 should be fine for a squeeze.I would just fold pf.

Other questions to the others?
is squeeze +ev in micro stakes?

 i would probs just muck it in hand 1.
hand 2 is fine, but i would make it just $5.
hand 3 is okay. you're closing action so i would probably just flat although this is fine too.

 Okay jus a couple of questions:

1. Should we really just be completing pre against his donk raise when we could either take the pot down there and then or set up profitable c bet situations and take a flop with a hand with potential. Also we dont really want to give the bb a free flop surely - increase the likelyhood our 99 will be outdrawn.

2. Is it okay to thin value bet this river against stationy donk instead of c/c

 1. 99 is typically my cutoff for raising limpers from sb, as far as pp's go. that being said i like your play.

2. i would rather bet than c/c. he might call you with worse but i would be surprised if this guy is even value betting a jack so hes checking back almost everything.
