HOW BAD WAS THIS FOLD REALLY? I WANNA BE RIDICULED.
 

2/5 live, 200 max buy-in.

I'm on the button with 99 with $200. Fold, fold, call, cut-off raises to 25. I call. 2 other callers.

Flop comes 9TJ rainbow.

BB checks, next guy pushes for like $150. I was calling this easily. But then, the pre-flop raiser calls.

I had just lost a buy-in a couple hands before and was just really fearing drawing to 1 out I guess. I fold after thinking for half a minute.

AM I RETARDED? THIS IS SHORTSTACKED 2-5 LIVE! EVEN IF SOMEONE HAS A STRAIGHT I GOT ODDS. FURTHERMORE, SOME OF THESE PLAYERS LIMP UTG WITH J-5 OFF SUIT!!!

Was up against KJ and AA.

I didn't even feel THAT bad after the hand. When I really realized what a terrible fold it was was later that night when I was stoned. It was a huge buzz-kill lol because I just felt really stupid about it (I told the whole table what I folded).

It was only my third time playing live in anything other than home games.

I guess I was just in online 1/2 mode. A $150 bet and a call? I must be up against KQ and JJ!!!

I'm a freakin nit.

based on the push i put him on higher pp pair and call on a draw, this is definitely a call more than a fold

With these stacks, fold is bad.

Sitting at a table with 40bb max buyin is even worse...

It's better if you don't tell the results.

The worst part about this fold is you did it because you believed were drawing to 1 out. This sort of weak-tight mentality is really really bad for NLHE.

on the bad fold scale, this is only about an 11/10

Well they say that you shouldn't drink when you play poker and I can attest to that, but in this case it might have helped.
