my thoughts: based on the preflop and post flop (before i folded) action, i figured at least one of the other 4 players had pockets bigger than my jacks (AA and KK - yikes!), and QQ or AQ suited seemed a good possibility as well. so, i gave myself two outs, and if someone had QQ (very conceivable based on the preflop betting), i had no outs. did i wimp out or make a good fold? Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) Preflop: fishstick is MP1 with J  , J . UTG raises, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, fishstick 3-bets, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB caps, BB folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, fishstick calls. Flop: (21 SB) 7 , Q, 9 (5 players)SB bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 raises, UTG+2 folds, fishstick folds, SB 3-bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls. Turn: (15 BB) 5  (3 players)SB bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls. River: (18 BB) J  (3 players)SB bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds. Final Pot: 20 BB Results in white below: SB has Ad Ac (one pair, aces). UTG has Kd Kc (one pair, kings). Outcome: SB wins 20 BB. |

Your fold was perfectly ok here.. Even without looking at the "final outcome", I would have folded it too. The only reason your second guessing your play here is because a MIRACLE card came on the river. Don't call that much action for a 2-3 outter. Think about it like this.. What if that river card was a blank instead. Would you be glad you laid it down? Yes, you'd be saying ot yourself.. WHEW, dodged a big one that time. Calling bets with a pocket pair to 1 over card was pretty big leak of mine. Often I'd call just to be shown the over pair. |

thanks all - just wanted to confirm. it's definitely a fine line (in limit) between over playing your big pairs, versus letting them go to easily. it's a journey...

| If you had called all the way down, you would be "that fish, who doesnt know where the fold button is" that we all make fun of. | ||

would have been a T and a K (straighting you and leaving a hole for the guy with the chicas) But anyone with sense would've folded in a second, as you did. So leave the skirt just how it is. PP bigger than your jacks aren't the only problem. You've gotta suspect all kinds of PPs, so there's a decent chance of any of those cards giving a set. |
