Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)

[tg]MP1$0.98:///////;MP2$2.24:///////;MP3$2.40:///////;CO$1.81:///////;BU (Hero)$1.43:///////;SB$0.94:///////;BB$2.00:///////;UTG2$2.09:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with J:h, J:c.
UTG2 calls $0.02, 4 folds, Hero raises to $0.10, 2 folds, UTG2 calls $0.08.

Flop: ($0.23) 6:h, 9:d, 3:s (2 players)

Turn: ($0.55) 6:d (2 players)
UTG2 bets $0.02, Hero raises to $0.42, UTG2 calls $0.40.

River: ($1.39) Q:d (2 players)
UTG2 bets $0.40, Hero raises to $0.75(All-In), UTG2 calls $0.35.

Final Pot: $2.89.
Results follow:

Spoiler

Hero shows two pairs, jacks and sixes(J:h J:c).
UTG2 shows two pairs, queens and sixes(Q:h 5:h).

UTG2 wins with two pairs, queens and sixes(Q:h 5:h).

The villain was quite loose and quit passive here. I had no reason to Call his small bet, but Re-raise. I guess should I have raised more, ~$.2 on Flop and pot size on Turn?

Hello anhvusa,

Add to full stack. :)

About the play well if he was really a very loose player then of course the raises are fine. Although I don't really think that you beat much on river to ship it, at the best you might just Call although even then after his line like min-bet/min-bet and bet bigger I might even fold the hand. If the guy really had 9x or whatsoever hand why ain't he protecting it earlier? :)

Best Regards.
