[note on stats: i have less than 30 hands on each of villains]

first: PFR size should be x4 or x5 because there's already a limper and i'm in EP.

flop: i hit TP and have a decent kicker, board is dry. guess the call is wrong, though i'm quite sure i'm ahead. do i want to keep everyone in? i must look out for sets. if i raise i keep in the underpairs and get rid of those w/ air. i guess i should have raised. another concern is 54, it's in their range.

turn: a possible blank, i make 2/3 of pot approx betting for value and hoping to take it down on the spot. i get called. who could call me now? an underpair? definitely a slowplayed pair turned set and K6. 97 or 54? would A6 call me?

river: pairs the board, i'm ahead of underpairs and 97 or 54 (if they're still there), i'm behind A6, K6, 66, 88, 33. if i check i might be bluffed by underpairs, i bet half pot but should have put him AI already, he raises AI, i call the 0.08€ to donate some more money (and see what he had).

please guys i need some help with this HH.

preflop: make your raises larger with an early limper, say .10 or .12
flop: bet bet & bet, 3/4 to full pot size, you have 3 callers so you will have a lot of KJ KT TT-77 hands that will float you seeing if you'll fire again on the turn
turn: absolute blank, bet 3/4 or pot size again.
river: just shove it AI

Your line here is so passive and the 3-bet on the turn blank make absolutely no sense.

You really mustn't look out for sets. The reason why we c-bet here is because a lot of the time we're getting calls on the flop and folds on the turn. That way, we extract value from our TPTK and don't really have to worry as much about people spiking big hands on the river. Your limping to a bet of 4 cents into a 24 cent pot had the effect of giving the CO, the Button and the UTG player a free card.

They explain it better here.

turn: a possible blank, i make 2/3 of pot approx betting for value and hoping to take it down on the spot. i get called. who could call me now? an underpair? definitely a slowplayed pair turned set and K6. 97 or 54? would A6 call me?

Almost definitely a blank. Waay too many hands that aren't 88's here to be worried about an 8 on the turn.

I think your range is off here. Nobody who has K6 is flat calling that flop, even as loose as these players are. Generally speaking loose-passive players get aggressive when they hit something, they don't stay loose when they're clearly ahead. 97 maybe, 54, again, maybe, A6 probably, as the bet on the turn looks really weird when you only limped on the flop. But you're ignoring possible small pairs that the loose player simply calls down with.

river: pairs the board, i'm ahead of underpairs and 97 or 54 (if they're still there), i'm behind A6, K6, 66, 88, 33. if i check i might be bluffed by underpairs, i bet half pot but should have put him AI already, he raises AI, i call the 0.08€ to donate some more money (and see what he had).

I'm guessing he had a 6? As played you pretty much have to call here.

Ninja-edit: More on the set thing, you only really have to worry about a set if you get three bet here.

ok, thank you guys, i feel sorry now for making your eyes bleed, i'll definitely try to do better, to do worse is quite difficult. i'm not that bad usually tho.

now thinking about it i guess my line was: on the flop i'm ahead so it's ok to call, turn is a blank so it's time to take down the pot (delayed cbet?? not sure that makes sense). now i understand this line was wrong but at least it explains the turn raise that made no sense.

Fold or make it 10 cents preflop. I'd lean toward folding more because you have a couple of loose guys with smallish stacks behind who are likely to flat and force you to play the hand OOP.

As played, RAISE THE FLOP donk bet.

Less than 30 hands is still as much as 4 orbits. That's not enough for solid reads, but ought to be enough to have a preliminary feel for how the table is playing - in this case, whether chances are good or bad that a raise from your seat will allow you to iso the limper. The more raises being called and the more pots going to the flop multi-way, the less likely you'll get into a 2-way pot in position. The straightforward play is to fold.

And yes, as played, raise the flop. To an amount that cuts the pot odds for calling to something within reason.
