No Reads. PF I usually fold, but I think I might not defend enough. Comments about that and the flop play please.

This is a bad call from SB. Fold or 3 bet.

I fold 100% of the time.

FWIW, I agree.

Postflop I play it the same.

Whoa you can't call this from the sb dude. If you do this consistently it's a huge leak. Flop plan and execution is correct.

ok, thanks. as i said i usually fold PF. it was an unthoughtout response to a vague feeling of not defening enough.

if i recall correctly, in 5/10 the sb is 1/3 the big blind. Thus there is not much incentive to defend. Especially with a hand as weak as 9Jo against an MP raise. Most of the "defending" I do in the sb is against a CO or button raise and with hands that have showdown value and it's usually for a 3bet. If utg raises and there's like 3 coldcallers or something, I will call with hands like QJs, things like that.
