cash game hand

[AgentChip109]

at my local casino last night playing £1/£1 blinds pot limit. im only sitting with £45 at this point. aint played a hand for ages, not cos im a really tight player just havent got dealt anything, and havent raised a hand pre flop at all during the night, so have given myself a rock image.
get dealt a pretty looking    and make it £5 to go from utg+2. the players then all say how this is my first raise and i must have the monster, none the less the button, SB & BB call.
flop  , checked to me, i bet £12, button folds but now BB and SB both call. SB is a total fish but BB is a more solid player. turn is a raggy  , its checked to me.

wot would u do now?

First off I don't play much in the way of cash games but I would say this hand looks pretty becasue you haven't played in a while so your getting a bit fustrated and play a prety looking but still a vunerable hand (as you see here). The problem is your chip stack when compared to the size of the pot, why did you raise on flop? The pot is £20 when you make the first bet, the size of that bet looks like a continuation bet and if the BB is solid he might have picked it up as this so if you check here he'll be looking to raise on the river. I recon your behind here, so the question is can a raise now get you the pot on the turn? It is certanly belivable that the flop has helped you, they could have ok hands or drawing hands, perhaps a pot sized bet on the turn will win it for you? The problem is the pot is now (20 + 3x12) £56 which is more than you have infront of you, thus the problem with playing PL with small stacks.

Persoanly if I was up agasint just one of them I might move all-in here, against both I feel a bit vunerable, I'd just check and see the last card free. I would be interested to see what cash game players say about this, its a spot I often get caught out in in comps, particuly when betting second pair against a "weaker" player who want lay-down an ace-rag.

ok so i did check and the river comes a 
the SB then bets £20 to put me all in. now i know everyone should say this is easy fold but i only had about £20 left and the pot now has about £80+ and i know how this guy plays. he had earlier bluffed a £8 pot wit  from the SB  when the board had 4 diamonds wit 3 players behind him. i had put him on a rag ace or  the only hand he could have if he is beating me is A10. i decided he didnt have that hand and pot odds told me to call. he shows 

obviously im very upset he called wit this bearing in mind wot the flop was.

but wot annoyed me more was him and another player berating me for checking the turn. they say how it was my own fault and should have gone all in on the turn. but how can i put him on  when hes calling that flop

If he was deep stacked, he calls your £20 all in on the turn anyway.

Tell them politely to fuck off. You played it fine, i play it same as you. And ur right to call on the end. He just got lucky, but hey, "thats poker".

Sit with more than 45BB's if you want to be raising with hands like KQ
