What's up NL forum.

My regular limit games were full this last weekend so I played a little $200NL($1/$2 blinds). This is my first hand for discussion. I am particulary interested in the turn decision and what consists of a "standard" NL decision.

BB-Gambler, loose pf and postflop ~$90 from his most recent buyin.
UTG-Sort of reasonable, but i have seen him go all-in on a draw before.~$140
UTG+1-Classic weak/tight; ~$220
UTG+2-Horrible; ~$100 on this buyin
MP2-Big time gambler: usually calls anything with top pair/no kicker. ~$250 on second buy-in.
CO-decent player. ~$300
Button-tight. ~$280

It was not unusual for there to be 8 or 9 to the flop with no raises. Great game. In this hand I am in the SB with 23o. I am down a little, I have maybe $90 from my $100 buyin.

I complete, BB checks, 8 to the flop.

Flop- J22rainbow

I check, BB bets $6 all call, I call.

Turn- 9 completing the rainbow.

I check, BB bets $10, all call, I push.

I figured the pot is big enough for me to protect my hand from what couple of draws may be out there. Standard? Comments on all streets appreciated.

Final pot: $134 before i pushed my remaining stack.
