After 2 limpers, raise more preflop, like $0.60
Raise the flop. Always.
Put in a small raise on the turn to get to showdown for free.
I call this river bet becuase I want to see what he played like this. I don't expect to be winning often and it's a marginal play at best, but I wanna know what hand he plays like this AND there's a small chance that I might still be paying for info with the best hand.

And we know you called cause of the final pot size.

Overs ... 6:1 ... call. It wins enough to call.

As played I can't fold for that price on the river. Raise an earlier street for sure though.

AND NOT A MIN. Make a real raise.

Thanks, it all makes sense.

I did call and he flipped 66

Raise flop to $1.50. Turn play depends on what he does with that raise, but you should be putting money in yourself on that turn too.

Flush draws blocker bet like this a lot.
