it's come to my attention that my play from the small blind sucks. here are a couple of hands that i was unsure of while playing. assume normal 1/2 party donks, 40/5/1.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (9.50 SB) 7/images/graemlins/club.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, BB folds, UTG folds.

Final Pot: 5.25 BB

sorry about the preflop question. anybody raise this? anybody coldcall? i guess its probably very read dependent.

is it alright to complete here? anybody do something different? how about the rest of the hand?
thanks

Hand 1:
Given the donks only raise 5% of their hands, I'd say this fold is fine. Like you said, player dependent.

Hand 2:
Completing is fine. Passive button raises the turn, I muck it in a small pot like this. You don't have odds to draw to your 5 outs.
