No reads. I really messed that up, didn't I? But as played, you are folding / calling / pushing the flop?

PF, I like a raise to 150.

As played, fold flop to the rr, your pair is rarely good.

raise pf with position on the button. fold flop given action in front of you.

I don't mind how you played it. Folding the flop is a bit nitty and pushing a bit risky. I don't agree that you're often beaten though: this is AT a ton and the first guy can have just about anything.
