I think you made a big mistake pre, in that you based your actions on the shortest stack at the table, and not on what value you could get from the 43/0 who's going to limp/call wide as shit with stuff that you beat, your OOP so you can't let this guy hit his TP when he's holding Q4 sooted and the flop comes down Q83r. Forget the SS, what he does is irrelevant in this hand as your getting it in vs him regardless, you need to be going for that $6.90.

As played its going to be hard getting MP1's stack imo, if you flat the turn the pot is gonna be 4.60 with effective stacks of $8ish. I think you have to put a raise in to bloat the pot a bit as you've played this so passively so far, raise to $2.50 and try to get MP1's stack in either on the turn or on the river as the river pot would then be like $6 ish with a psb left for MP1's stack

Definitely Raise to $2-$3 on this turn and then you can easily get it in on the river. But I prefer a raise preflop to around $0.35.

I would have wrote this but his specific reasoning for not raising pre needed to be addressed imo

Fish call, thats why they are fish and this one esp doesnt like to fold(although lol sample size).

Raise pre cause so we can win bigger pots vs worse players.
