The stack sizes made it an awkward hand to be in at the time. With a smaller stack he can shove, and with a larger stack he can call and face a river decision. With 500k and Jamie's raise to 125, Doyle is finding it hard to commit himself with that hand.

I agree. And that's why I don't like Doyle's bet size on the turn. Gold likes to bluff and play baby suited cards. That turn card is one where a check-raise from Gold is pretty likely, as either a bluff on the scare card or from a flush. Doyle bet $25k into $20k (I think). When he gets check-raised like he did it puts him in an awkward spot considering the stacks as Private_Joker said. Had Doyle bet something like $14k into $20k, then Jaime can check-raise to what...$60k or $70k? Maybe even something like $45k. I think Doyle can call that and probably call the river, or at least play the river well as he is in position.

With the size of Doyle's bet I think folding is fine.
