Depends on SBs tendencies. In a vacuum, I don't hate it.

Its thin but can be ok, villain should have virtually no aa/jj/6 unless he planned to xr turn, even then he will lead river most of the time

Kk/qq/jj/tt/99 should never fold but you will get action from worse pairs and rarely ak

If villain is very trappy just checkback raise is a disaster

I feel like in a $2 tournament you'll get action from someone holding an A and thinking they have a full house.

Question: Would a raise post flop been terrible? Or is there no chance anyone would have folded? Thinning the field is a good thing, correct. Or is it just standard to see a flop cheaply three handed with this hand. Thanks.

not only that, it's a fairly bad starting hand, although there are many worse, so i don't really want to voluntarily put in any more chips than i have to.

postflop, i bet my two pair on the flop to try and take the pot down. it was kind of a bluff, but sometimes i am ahead. if i am called, it's unlikely i am ahead though. but i do protect my hand by betting.

it was a good flop to try this on because it's unlikely to have helped my opponents
