Would you have bet first in, or check-raise? Also if you do bet for value three times and you get raised on the River, do you call?

Thanks! I'll remember that and raise next time I'm in a similar position.

Yeah this also makes sense to me. It was a bit of a sunk cost fallacy too because I felt stupid about not having raised the Flop, so I raised the Turn where it made less sense. The entire hand was just played very poorly; I tend to become too passive whenever the position feels unfamiliar.

One thing I should have mentioned is that the rake is actually very low. If the pot is less than 50€ then there's no rake at all (that was the case in this hand), and if it's 50€ then rake is 2€. From there it increases according to a complicated system (can't be a fixed % because the smallest chip is worth 2€). So if you think limping is a close call with cash game rake, the fact that it's less than half as large as in online poker rooms probably makes it worthwhile? I mean I'm not sure, but the combination of low rake and other limpers feels like it justifies it. Again I only consider limping if there are limpers before me.
