Sorry, I tried a converter but it just messed up the hand history.

EEK? Is it too weak to fold here? I'm relatively new to the table but from what I've seen Lootomo seems solid. I have a solid image as well.

<font color="#FF4444">[*] </font> Preflop is bad. Unless the guys behind are very passive preflop either raise or fold.
Raise the flop, you don't want a 4th [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] to peel off the deck. If someone gives you action you can still consider folding.
The turn card is horrible, so folding seems quite standard.
