I'm folding this turn, our hand isn't very strong and has very few outs to improve.

I'd probably call a half pot bet.

I limp pre. As played I cbet small on flop. As played, meh no big deal either way (but probably tiny bit better as a fold after taking account win-rate maxing).

How much are we supposed to limp at this depth (~30bb)? Is it a big mistake to minraise even a hand like Q4o instead of limping? Sorry for a semi-off-topic message tho.

I would not call it a mistake.

But you have to think about your overall ranges, not just a single hand.

Ask yourself the questions: why is limping better? Why should I minraise?

What are cons? What are pros?

You can learn a lot just by asking questions. Go for it, man.

Thanks for the reply

I don't have a limping range at this depth, but maybe I should, what sort of hands are you limping at this depth and why?

I don't see any merit in cbetting small here (or at all) , we are always getting called by better hands and are giving good odds to drawing hands which will likely have two overs as well?

Reason for Cbetting flop here in my opinion are:
- Getting Value from Draws & Kx that call
- Folding out random overcards(?) I guess in this spot we dont mind just taking the pot right away, as our hand is not strong enough to get several streets of value
