Me: Qc, 8c
Pot checked around to me in BB. I check.
Flop: Ac, 10c, Ad
MP: Bets 1.75 euros
Folded around to me, I call.
Turn: 9h
MP: Bets 3 euros
Me: Fold

I'm thinking he had trip A's. All I had was a flush draw, maybe high kicker. But like I said, with his 3 euro bet I'm thinking he had trip A's. Of course he could have had a 10 also. But with just a flush draw, I'm thinking fold was the right move.

Any way to play this different? Or should I have folded after the flop when he came in with the 1.75 euros? 50nl game. I have 60 euro's, MP has 45 euro's.

Bo G is an unknown quantity at this point
With two As on the board I would be too scared even if your flush does hit. He might have a boat AT or A9 or Ax (river card). Fold this on the flop.

Good points. I probably should have folded after the flop when he bet into me.

I fold the flop. He's too likely to boat, and you're probably not getting paid off if you hit. The pot is small anyway. Your kicker is not good here.

were there limpers preflop? we need to know how much money is in the pot to calculate odds.

4 limpers preflop including myself. For a total of 2 euro's in the pot pre flop. After the flop bet by MP, 2 of the limpers folded leaving just MP and me in the BB. I checked after the flop, then called the MP bet.

There are 8.5 euros in the pot. You have to call 3. Your pot odds are a little under 3:1. The odds of making your hand are about 4:1. The pot isn't laying you the correct oddds to call so you should fold.

I need to read up on odds and how to figure them. Thats part of the game I haven't given much attention to.

Thanks
