i think being completely results oriented you might have been lucky and actually folded to a higher set, bc the PFR's line of check/calling then calling again on the flop and then c/rai on the turn looks pretty strong like he could have TT or QQ, (though it could also easily be a turned FD with a straight draw or something, like KJs). thing is, you didn't have this info when you made your original fold which is what makes this fold pretty gross. like jim said, the pfr's c/c doesn't really mean much and you obviously cant put him on a set from that action alone. then the BB's c/r of the small bet and call can easily be him trying to steal the pot here assuming you both are very weak or he could be raising for value with AQ or QT or something along those lines. i really hate this fold on the flop bc you're scared of the c/r from BB especially since he's probably 3betting QQ always in his spot pf which rules that out from his range and i'm not sure about this guy, but a lot of ppl would 3bet TT here too which makes it pretty difficult for BB to have you beaten on this flop.

but dudes dont you see the sparks flying on the turn between those other guys? read the rest of the HH next time, its obvi a good fold.

only bad thing about folding is that he's probably against QQ and TT so his case 5 out is good against both of them.

your hh only shows it was a bad fold. the guy you were really worried about turned out to be weak. the pfr doesn't have QQQ or TTT that often

DJ, so you're saying when he's calculating his implied odds of hitting the case 5 he should include both their stacks because they are probably donks who wont be able to fold the 2nd and 3rd nuts when they boat up? i think you're right here, other people should really take note of this!

Lol @ folding bottom set to a single checkraise from one player who wasn't even the preflop raiser. This has to be a joke right?

The funniest part about this IMO is that the hand history doesn't show the "xxx has 15 seconds left to act" part, which means Hero folded this without much thought.

This is too good to be true, ban OP plz.

This fold rocks because as you can see on the turn Wibez obv has a huge hand. Therefore the OP has psychic abilities and knew this course of events was going to take place and took the smart option of bailing out on the flop.

In the future, please dont use the action on future streets to justify a super lame fold. geeeez [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
