99 10NL FR - Advice

[Jurn8]

Just a few questions on my play was this ok preflop play or should i have raised, also if somebody had raised say 4xBB in a later position would you call even say if you have 55 or 66?
Another question also would you be concerned with the straight here K10 would have made a straight ?

I think u did quite well in pulling BigB into the pot. Maybe the last bet could have been higher, because BigB wasn't showing a Monsterhand in his bets.
I would he had a Q and wanted to pull it through at all costs, so he was ready to be fished...

Well played

Limping pairs at 10$ NL is fine, but IMO raising them (especially ones like 99) is better. You'll be able to play this pair for more than just set value since it will sometimes be an overpair, or will be a decent hand on a paired board like QQ5.

As played, raise more on the flop, raise the turn, get all in by the river. Your raises are ridiculous, and if you don't take this guy's entire stack when he hits two pair, you're doing something wrong.

I don't like limping, and i think i never open-limp, but i guess it's sometimes an acceptable play. I do think 99 is a bit too strong for that, though.

Post-flop, it's a major sin not to be able to get villain's entire stack once he hits two pairs. Raise turn, shove river.

i think what you missed was the weak bet he made on the turn, If you raised to maybe $1.75 you could have got more money in on the river
