What do you make of the minbet on the flop?

I check behind on the turn and re-evaluate. Your bet may push out a better two pair or something, but given the previous play, its unlikely they'll respect you for an A (then again, this is $25NL, so they may not pay attention).

As played, the fold is fine.

You think the four-outter to the full house is no g00t with this action?

I definitely agree don't bet, unless you have a sure-fire read.

That's what I thought too. I'm too aggressive and this was one of the worst cases. Gotta try to patch this leak. Thank you.
