PF I dont like doing this from CO with 1 limper.

Flop fine. Turn bet is obviously fine.

Now what the hell do you put this guy on?? JT? Flopped set? There isnt much you can beat on that board, so I think fold.

I think this is a fold. It is more confusing because it really looks like you don't have much of anything most of the time, but I wouldn't give an unknown at 1/2 the abilitity to see that or the balls to bluff like this (even with a flush draw). I you had position on the raiser, I think you could call because he would have to act first on the river, but here, I think I just let it go.

I dont like preflop, because (1) you dont have the button and (2) I want to know that UTG isnt a callingstation postflop (because it could seem like it). (if the button is tight and UTG is somewhat weaktight postflop (or folds a lot preflop to raises) then prf is fine of course).

On the river I need some kind of history before I dare call this.

Uh, don't play £1/£2 because the rake is ridic? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Pf/flop standard. Ok when he raises here if you call your basically hoping he has KQss/AQss or something like that? I think this is 89/JT/maybe a set much more often than a hand you are ahead of especially since this is a 3way pot.

Isolating a loose(likely bad) limper in position w/ a tight image that should often buy me the btn = $$$.

It is £1/2 which is more like $2/4. Villains at this level will def. raise here some of the time w/ a flush draw. I don't think it's air that often though w/ teh other guy in the hand + my line here from many players is as much if not more indicative of strength rather than weakness on this board.

All this sums up pretty well why I did indeed fold. I still felt really uncomfortable doing so. I mean if I'm folding everything but say a set+ here how easy is that to abuse(esp. as I vry rarely have one).
