Default As aggro?

Finally made a deposit on PokerStars after taking a LONG break. Was wondering if i made the right decision playing as aggressive taking advantage of my position after missing on the flop

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed)

BB ($3.38)
Hero ($3.02)
MP ($1.97)
Button ($8.11)
SB ($3.33)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, K.
Hero raises to $0.08, 3 folds, BB raises to $0.14, Hero raises to $0.2, BB calls $0.06.

Flop: ($0.41) 6, 5, 5 (2 players)
BB bets $0.02, Hero raises to $0.2, BB calls $0.18.

Turn: ($0.81) 2 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.3, BB calls $0.30.

River: ($1.41) 9 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.5, BB folds.

Final Pot: $1.91

obv it worked for you, but i would never play a hand like that in the micros cause they will usually call you down with any pair

Im trying not to play with terrible hands in the micro limits but im not keen on sitting around for high pairs. I like to play alittle more hands than that even at this level.

I really think it's a losing play to bet the turn in the micros. IF you're going to bet I think you're giving your oponent too good odds when you're betting that small. Same goes for the river.

If you read my HU thread, I'll call shit boards down with Ace high and if the BB has Ace high, he's right to call you down, IMO.

PF- Your raise is fine. He min. re-raises you and you min. re-re-raised? Pointless. If you wanna take it down PF (which you're not doing), you have to bump it up to triple his total investment. But you have position and only King hi. Just call.

Flop- Whether you just call or make that bad re-re-raise, he's gonna be a retard. When he makes this bitch of a bet, pot him and take it down. If he calls that, you're done with the hand unless you hit 'cause he's not laying it down and you have the worst hand.

Turn- If you really think you can double-barrel off a better hand to this shitty board, you're gonna have to come stronger or go home. 2/3 the pot, at least.

River- You're lucky, he's a retard.

This hand wasn't aggression, it was weak. Flop wasn't horrible, but still bad. Give him 3:1 at best. If you're gonna do that on the flop, pump the turn hardcore. That said, double-barreling the micros is pointless.

I appreciate the lengthy reply alex. The only reason i re-raised pre-flop with a minimum raise was not to take down the pot but to help emphasize that i had a hand worth betting.

I never realized when betting to take alot of these micro players out the hand i need to bet real HARD.

Going to play a couple hours tonight and hopefully everything should work out in my favor!

this hand was played pretty weak on a few streets. like pf re min raise? eather call (as i would do) or repop it for like 35 cents. flop = good p[lay. turn = bad. bet pot there if you think you can win, or check it till river if you give up.

river, 1/3 pot is begging to get called by 22+ A2+ when up against a donk. vs donk id chek or bet pot. prolly lean towrd chek (if i double barelled it), If i bet only one of the streats (turn or flop), then i think 80-100% pot is standard bet on river.
