PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP ($11.15)
Button ($9.95)
SB ($10)
Hero (BB) ($12.15)
UTG ($10.95)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J, A
1 fold, MP raises to $0.40, 1 fold, SB calls $0.35, 1 fold

Flop: ($0.90) 8, 10, 7 (2 players)
SB checks, MP bets $0.80, 1 fold

Total pot: $0.90 | Rake: $0

I wanted to 3-bet the original raiser, because he was stealing from CO and BU lightly, When the call occured, I froze up. I did want to isolate, but both of these guys had a big problem comitting to "seeing the flop" so even if I raised to 2 dollars, It would have been a huge pot, with a top pair hand that could even be reverse dominated, since the raiser could have AK or AQ and the caller liked to call with better hands with a perpensity to raise.
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

Any reads on SB? This could be a pretty good two-way bet spot in which we should end up in position if SB calls too much. I think you'll get more folds out of MP if he really does steal too much but even if he calls (since he calls too much) you can have him dominated. But if we can isolate SB with a better hand than him IP then it's good.

{moved from SHNL} 25nl and below should go in the BC.

I think this should be a standard fold; occasionally squeeze to 1.55 .
My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

What if we're suited?

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
