Default Re: Playing Too Tight??

One more for raising preflop, although I don't think limping behind is terrible at these stakes in a live game.

As played, good fold--you trusted your read (which was probably right), and in a typical B&M game you aren't going to make up enough in implied odds after the flop to call 2 more bets (and possibly have to call a third).

In answer to your other questions, always pay attention to your pot odds. That's what LHE is all about. And no, results don't matter...I've patted myself on the back for making correct folds while cringing at what I would've hit more times than I can count. Of course, neither your nor I remembers the far more plentiful occasions when we correctly folded & wouldn't have hit anything.

Oh...probably not a good idea to tell the table what you had after the hand. Sure, it's tempting when you would've won a huge pot, but you likely don't want the image issues that mentioning this fold could bring up.
