Full Tilt - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

MP: $3.60 (VPIP: 18.52, PFR: 14.81, 3Bet Preflop: 7.69, Hands: 27)
CO: $1.61 (VPIP: 66.67, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 3)
BTN: $3.58 (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 20.00, 3Bet Preflop: 20.00, Hands: 16)
SB: $0.25 (VPIP: 50.00, PFR: 50.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 4)
Hero (BB): $3.97
UTG: $1.48 (VPIP: 28.57, PFR: 14.81, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 28)

SB posts SB $0.01, Hero posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.03) Hero has 5♥ 6♥

fold, MP raises to $0.06, CO calls $0.06, BTN calls $0.06, fold, Hero calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.25, 4 players) 4♣ 2♠ 3♦
Hero checks, MP checks, CO checks, BTN checks
The big Question: Should I have led out here?

Turn: ($0.25, 4 players) A♠
Hero bets $0.10, MP calls $0.10, fold, BTN calls $0.10

River: ($0.55, 3 players) T♠
Hero checks, MP checks, BTN checks
Now there is a made flush on the board, so no likely to get any action and sure enough...

Spoiler

Hero shows 5♥ 6♥ (Straight, Six High) (Pre 29%, Flop 90%, Turn 96%)
MP mucks K♦ A♥ (One Pair, Aces) (Pre 52%, Flop 0.2%, Turn 0%)
BTN mucks 6♦ A♦ (One Pair, Aces) (Pre 19%, Flop 10%, Turn 4%)
Hero wins $0.53

OTR, should I be betting out here as well?
I'm so used to playing aggressive types I sometimes forget to be one myself

Ok calling preflop: SCs are usually bad hands OOP at these limits, but MP is a deep nit opener, you're getting very nice IO and also BTN is in the pot, he's deepish too!

The big Question: Should I have led out here?

Yep! And that's not even a big question: it's the only right move imho.

:club: MP is a nit and at NL2 they hardly can fold any overpair here: he has a lot of overpairs in his range and the missed hands like overcards are definitely not cbetting a 4wp, then by leading you get value

:club: CO and BTN are both pretty unknown. CO seems a fish, BTN could be a regular. Btw even if just CO is a fish you have to bet first to get the value from all of his random hands that are likely to call the flop: PPs, draws, overcards...

The turn bet is defintely to small. I know that A is a scary card, but usually at these limits they don't look too much at the size and tend to call in any case if they decided they want to call. Now there's also possibility for a flush draw on the board and you have to get value from them, as you want to get the maximum value from possible Ax that missed the flop. Bet 0.18 minimum!

The river is sick (now you wish you had bet more on the turn ;) ). Checking is not optimal since if you get a big bet you're probably going to end up calling it and also there was maybe some possibility about one of the opponents to have an A.

I think I'm bet/folding here. Checking is good, but it will be very hard to call any bet...

By leading the flop you solve any of you problems :)

Fold preflop, your hand is very weak. Your one pair hand = useless, two pairs = bottom pairs, trips = no kicker, flush = worst possible flush. It's gonna be very hard to get value OOP. Your draws will have reverse implied odds plus very weak equity, because you will not have overcards...

Flop: I would lead hear for 75% pot because I don't expect light bluffs here. BTN/Hero ranges are PP/Ax heavy thats the reason PFR will not cbet without hand. BTN can also don't bluff because your range hits very often here.

One more problem is that it's very hard to bet/call on this board without set/55, because your check/raise in 3way on this board looks very strong. So...
- I don't want c/f with nuts
- I don't want c/c because there are many action killers
- I don't want c/r because it looks too strong

Donkbet is best option.

Turn: I bet higher, 0.18$.

River: low bet/fold for value from Ax/two pairs. A♠ and T♠ is blocking most of flushes. They are only few reasonable flushes (KQ/KJ/QJ/J9?/98/87).

Might as well throw in my 2 cents (hey hey hey hey)

Had to lol at the 'fold preflop' comment. I know he's actually being serious but it sounds too funny. Call preflop is obviously fine.

Leading and checking are both good. Maybe leading slightly better, unless you can gauge the likelihood of someone else betting to be significant.

I agree that you should bet larger. You should physically have flush draws in your range on the turn, so pick just pick a number eg. 70% of the pot that you will lead the turn with your pocket nines, flushdraws and straight, etc.

River is acceptable IMO but seeing as the pot is so small for the hand you have you probably would call a half sized bet on the river, at least I probably would I think. Thus I would preferably bet fold (just saw now the other guy also said that).
