Wow, why'd you fold? I wouldn't keep making these folds unless you don't like money, I lose all my money this hand. Nice fold, but IMO I wouldn't make a habbit out of laying down middle set on the flop.

Could be a blockbet with KK, scared of A. Call and re-evaluate turn. Or fold pf to any sign of aggression.

Sorry read AbreuTime's post wrong the first time, but I call here 100% of the time unless I know re-raiser is full of BS. Then, I re-pop his him.

I really dislike your avatar AbreuTime.

Your logic is backwards. If you know the raiser is bluffing, it is then that you should call every time. How could you possibly reason this way? Am I misunderstanding your post?

I'm surprised by the answers, the minraise from a passive player like this from big blind is what caused me to lay my hand down, if he had raised more pf, or if it was against another player, I probably would have lost all money indeed.

And what's the use of putting whole stack at risk when thinking there's a big chance I'm behind there, while I can find much better spots against players like these?

You are only behind one hand, you hamm.

What better spots can you find against any other player?

What are you waiting for, a higher straight flush?

All I'll say is that you should continue reading 2p2 and trying to learn as much as possible, and maybe in a few months you'll look back at this thread and laugh at your fold. I know because a very similar thing happened to me.
