    Default Top & bottom on scary board vs shorties

    SB is a bad calling station that is tilting on me as I keep pushing him out of pots. BU is new to the table but probably bad since I have no notes and he buys short. Oh yeah, and I play bad here.

    Turn puts me in a real shitty spot, since the BU is short and any bet almost commits me, but I feel it is a b/f situation. What do you all do here?

    Preflop: I could have re-raised to isolate SB, but he was only opening like 7% of hands and i took a cheap flop hoping to hit big. Comments on pre welcome too?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($122.45)
    UTG ($136.05)
    MP ($99.40)
    Button ($60)
    SB ($35.35)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with K, J.
    2 folds, Button calls $1, SB raises to $2, Hero calls $1, Button calls $1.

    Flop: ($6) J, Q, K (3 players)
    SB bets $3, Hero raises to $11, Button calls $11, SB calls $8.

    Turn: ($39) 9 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $20, Button raises to $47, SB folds, Hero calls $27.

    River: ($133) 2 (2 players)

    Final Pot: $133

    honestly i dont know what else i would do here. I think b/f is right on the turn against a full stack but you cant really fold after you bet against either villain. on the other hand, checking is too weak and lets hearts draw for free. idk, just a shitty spot. spike a J or K on the river next time i guess.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    I c/f the turn unless he makes some retarded min-bet.

    Thanks for the responses guys. I thought it might be a c/f, but that just felt so weak.
    [sarcasm] A b/c with a weak ass bet felt soo much better. [/sarcasm]
