2 things im not sure people who think folding here is awful are considering.

If you are ahead it's likely that collectivly they have 7-17 outs vs you.

If you are behind, you're drawing dead.

How many more bets is it going to cost you to see a showdown? How many more bets are you willing to put in before you say "okay now im beat"? If one guys willing to go a few bets more on the river with a set and the other guy has a lower flush, what now?
If you're ahead the betting will likely stop now or with another river bet. if you're behind, who knows how much more you have to invest.


I'm not saying a fold is correct, im saying I would have folded in the heat of the moment.. It's pretty close. I underestimate LAG's ability to play reatarded too frequently though. I'm also not familiar with 3-handed agression levels.

If you are consistantly folding good hands to too much agression they can knock you out of too many pots. You do have to show them that you will not be pushed out at times. I wouldn't assume they were trying to do this , before it happened a couple times though..

Against two TAG's it's a clear fold.

The funny thing is how so many people are hitting the fold button here. To call a LAG a "retard", and getting you to 10 high flush, 3 handed, is more retarded. If my opponent in a 3 handed game was worried about making big laydowns and folds flushes and all sorts of other good stuff, Id push the pedal to the floor as well. The hand is simple, call.
