Default 4-handed 10/20 QJd

Lineup here is great. Button is very tight and predictable, SB is a loose passive donkey. 50/10, calls down to the river with pretty much any two, donks his made draws. BB here is kinda fishy, but not quite as bad. Something like 40/20. We've been at the table together for roughly 30-40 hands.

4-handed 10/20 online.
I open Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] from the CO. Button folds, SB calls, BB 3-bets, I call, SB calls.

3 to the flop for 9 SB. 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB checks, BB bets, I call, SB calls.

3 to the turn for 6 BB. J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB checks, BB bets, I call, SB calls.

3 to the turn for 9 BB. 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] SB checks, BB bets, I call, SB calls.

Final pot: 12 BB.

Does this look fine? I have no idea where I stand with regards to the BB, though I'm probably ahead. I was very confident that the SB would call 1 bet (but not 2) with unmade hands on the flop and turn, but I don't know what he'd do with a made hand. He'd likely be calling 2 cold, at least on the flop. There aren't very many made hands though.

that's about as close toa poker oxymoron as it gets

on to the hand, your flop peel is reeeeally loose. even against a LAG, you have 3 outs pretty damn often. I like a turn raise since the SB will call 2 with any piece

Yeah it's loose, but SB is calling almost every single time, and he's never raising. I'll be getting 11:1 on my call. I can be convinced it's too loose though.

On the turn, a raise will be called by SB if he's got a J, a 6, or any pocket pair. Everything else I assume he'll fold, whereas he's calling them for 1 bet. It'll also lock up BB if he's on 77-TT, and I'm getting 3-bet by everything that beats me. Is it still a raise to you?

my first instinct was to draw him in. you said he's really loose so I figured he'd call 2 with any gut shot, any one overcard, etc, which is almost as much as he'd call one with. if he's peeling with 2 undercards then calling is good. the goal is to charge SB as much as possible. against the BB you're probably around even

as for the flop, you need about 4 outs, and you have 0 or 3 against a healthy chunk of his 3-betting range
