    You should have raised the turn.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    I waited a long ass time like I was thinking and pressed the 'so and so has requested time' button to make him think I was weak so he'd push on river and I could reraise, but then the fucking river scared me

    Nah, just raise that turn up. I say 3/4 pot it.

    Raise the flop, there is no way we should be flat calling this, a) it gets no money in the middle and b) it lets SB see a cheap turn.

    Yes the turn is also a raise but not as mandatory as the flop raise.

    River is a fold imo

    +1 I meant to say this also but forgot. Bottom two pair is not worth slowplaying.

    Raise flop

    Raise turn

    Smash up keyboard/monitor/anyone in the room etc. and fold river.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.
