looks good. Your pot equity is likely nonzero(with your running quad outs), but quite small.

I agree. There's no point to continuing is there?

This is a good fold, this is where you save money and people who don't play/study poker all day lose money. They call down or raise and get reraised ending up in a big pot with no chances to win.

Your current pot equity doesnt necessarily have to be that small but the reverse implied odds against 6 other players are killing your hand completely.

This is a reverse implied odds nightmare.

What do you really want to see on the turn and river?

Every A, K, Q, T, 8, 5, and [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], and possibly the 6s and 7s fry your hand most likely, if you are even ahead. That's like 31-37 cards in the deck you don't want to see.

The odds of hitting two consecutive cards that donk fry your hand is like 5-6.5%.

easy fold with 7 people involved, like deranged said, reverse implied odds nightmare.

Just checking. When I saw the flop I'm like, yes, then immediately, no.

The SB bet, i'm like, uh, I'm just gonna fold this b/s.

Glad I'm on the same page on this one.
