I'll salvage this thread into something instructive.

Who knows why the call preflop would have been bad with 65o?

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.

because its 65o, clearly if i raised i have something of value, I personaly would NEVER call with 56o, even to limp, thats just a donk move...maybe 56s on the button i might limp in if theres 3+limpers, but not 56o

We already know that he has 65o -- you don't have to remind us of that. So again I'll ask, WHY was it bad to call the $0.55 raise with 65o here?

not enough implied odds, as well as being out of position
