did I play this ok?

-never limp

-iso the limper, u hav initiative then bet all flops.

iso doesn't work at 2NL. The guys that limp behind, will as easily call the iso raise. I've found over limping pairs and suited connectors to see cheap flops fairly effective. I don't open limp, but I fail to see how over limping is bad? Especially when an isolating the limper isn't going to work a lot of the time.

this is a losing play in the long run because what will tend to happen is you will miss the board often and give up on pots frequently

check turn. if he c/r you're committed with 6 high. if you check back turn and hit river you can still get most of his stack with a ~potsized bet.

i don't mind the overlimp that much tbh, iso could be better but i'm pretty sure both will be +ev at 2nl if you don't do anything unreasonable postflop.

with small pockets and SC it's perfectly fine to overlimp (depends who's behind, but at nl2 it doesn't matter)

hands like AQo, KJo would like to play pot HU


+ turn stuff ^^^

i would give up river if he x instead of donk, one of the worst cards, any A is like AK

This is just wrong. He is the co which means he is most likely going to have position after the flop, which in turn means he will win the pot often enough when it is checked through to him by betting, even when he misses completely.

explain to me how this is wrong?

if hero overlimps and misses, villain bets flop we obv fold. we dont have initiative.

and loses 1bb

if he hits he makes a lot of bbs

Agree with limping it not that bad, given that ppl will often pay you off if you hit

And neither does villain. And he is oop. So unless he is super aggro in limped pots betting 100% when checked to (which he is most likely not) we can bet every time the action goes check check and take down the pot. We do not need to hit to continue, we just need for both the bb and the limper to tell us that they have nothing.
