pot the flop....
turn bet 2 or maybe even close to pot
you get called by a lot worse there and you need to get value from those hands.... and with hands with hearts in them that just picked up a fd, you need to make them pay to draw or make them give it up.... so bet about 2 or even closer to pot....
I gotta get back to the money....

i just hate wiffing on the flop so badly against two limp cold calls.

 The second hand just raise it up to $5 on the flop unless you've got a read that he minbet/calls, or minbets as a sign of strength. Check/raise looks strong here given you were the PFR'er.

And why check the river? You finally have a hand.

yeah that is what i do in a tourney against donks 100% of the time. it's such a gay ass bet.

i'm still feeling a bit out of my comfort zone in ring. maybe i'm not rolled at FTP for $25NL? 30 BI's is enough right?

I'd say that depends on how many tables you play.

you either need to move down to make the money seem trifling or grow some balls at the stakes you are at. $ is the tool of your trade, if you are afraid to lose it you will... a slow bleed.

no, it doesn't. unless maybe you can't cover the number of tables you want to play but then you are obviously under-rolled.

corbin, it's whatever you feel comfy playing with. some ppl only need like 25 buy-ins. some like to play with 40+. it's up to you.

for me 25 is enough, and i just drop back down if i lose like 3-4. unless you are blatantly over rolling, which you obv arent, its whatever you feel comfortable with. for me, when i was playing micro's, i couldnt wait to get to the next limit, so i routinely took shots at 20 bi and dropped down if i lost a couple bi.

1) you have to bet this turn, and fold to a big raise.

2) idk, this is such a weird spot. i would rather lead than raise. vbet river as played.
