Why are you getting involved in this limped pot with bottom pair?

 Hard to fold preflop considering he is bb in a limped pot.

Anyways, I generally play this type of hand very passively and just c/f the flop in a multiway pot there with bottom pair. However, I don't hate making a stab there for 2/3 pot. However, if called on the flop I'm in c/f mode for the turn and the river unimproved.

His turn bet is giving you what 4.5:1 odds? I honestly don't know if you call getting odds that good here to see if you make something better on the river or not, but I definately wouldn't raise that turn. Only hands I see played this way is 44,99,K9 all of which have you beat (lean more towards 44 here).

oh lol, didn't notice that he was in BB in limped pot... I might actually make a squeeze play in this case, and fire one bullet on flop if someone calls

anyways once that flop comes I check/fold, no use in staying in there with bottom pair

Just fold. Default to the line that gives you the fewest stomach ulcers. And that's folding.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

I understand the first bet considering you got a part of the flop, you kinda raised for information and with some luck the guy could've folded. But he called, and fired a bet into you in the turn, i would've folded right there considering you had bottom pair and few outs.
