Default to donk or to check raise.

Button seems like a LAG but only over an insignificant 12 hands. Cutoff seems loose passive. Donk or CR turn? Flop play ok?

PokerStars 1/2 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls, CO calls.

Flop: (7.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls, CO calls.

Turn: (5.25 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero ?

Open limping makes baby jesus cry, I fold this early in like that. I donk the flop and turn.

i generally dont open limp unless there are enough loose bad players. i can see how it can be -EV but against these opponents i felt that i could outplay them postflop. but when do you open limp JT then? or do you usually raise/fold preflop?

I think I've open limped in 6-max about 10 times, and I was either drunk or it was an accident.

It depends on the table, but I usually raise all of those.

I also raise all of them. KTo I fold UTG, but probably at 1/2 KTo and QJo are profitable early in.
