$25 NL game, 10 players
my stack = $15

preflop:
4 limpers when the bet comes to me, i raise to $1.40. UG calls, everyone else folds.

flop: (2 players) Kd 3s 9c
I bet $2 on a $3 pot. UG calls

turn: 7c
I bet $3.20 on a $7.00 pot, UG raises me all in, i call $8.15.

river: 2d

1. yes
2. what were the blinds?
3. you have bad position and a big hand, raise more preflop
4. bet more on the flop
5. be all-in by the turn

It's not that bad fim..... I dont know what the blinds were, so I cant judge on the size of the raise PF. I would probably bet more like 2.50 or 3 on the flop, (closer to the pot), but a 2/3 pot gives 77 pretty bad odds.

I would bet more on the turn (all-in), the way you played it though, you should of course call the all-in.

$1.50-$2.00 preflop
pot size bet on the flop
all in on the turn.

If $2 is too big of a bet to get any action, then youre bet is fine. Id bet the pot on the flop, because youre probably gonna get called by the same hands, you might as well get more money in. Now that youve bet $2 preflop and $4 on the flop, the pot is about $12 and moving in is appropriate. Again, he's either going to call you or he isnt, no reason to underbet it.

You played it fine; your opponent is a lucky fish. Say "nice hand" and crush him later.
