Smells like A 10 to me.

I guess an equity calc would be useful, but given this action, and the type of player we know this guy to be (straightforward) I would put him on a made straight/straight draw/2 pair/top pair/some weird trappy play with AA/KK - the latter seems unlikely if we think he"s straightforward. Sets are unlikely so I wouldnt put this in his range. Alot here would be tell and read dependent on this particular player. It "feels" like your 2 pair is beat here, or racing, but the maths may dictate a shove

I"m in the Small blind with  jc 9d and the button open limps. I opt to complete with a view to calling/raising if the BB gets awkward, but i think maybe it"s time to just see a flop and play from there.

Can you explain a bit more about the thought process here please? what were your intentions if BB raised?

he"s raised pretty rarely and only in pots where I"d folded, but I suppose it"s possible that he might and I may have to think about it.
I need a bit more info before I answer the hypothetical question though.

How much are you thinking he might raise?
Is the button calling?

AMRN:
Having asked the question in the OP, and given your following notes that things didn"t go well generally, I suspect you suffered some form of bad beat in this hand?

I think the correct answer to the question is to shove to remove the BB and isolate the Button..... you probably did this and he either showed a flopped straight, or an AQ type hand that went on to counterfeit yout two pair?
