I allways have problem with foldin that kind of set. But board looks really scarry, any club, and he probably has one, would kill you. Difficoult fold, but fold...

I dont even mind a flop call of his dumb 60 raise. You will get more callers, the pot will stay small enough that you can play to the odds of hitting a full house or even quads, and not have to put a ton of chips in.

I think you played it fine though.

i agree w the way you played it. calling the flop and betting the turn big if not club hits is also fine i think.

you have to fold the turn
