Default Can I fold this (24/180)

Blinds 10/20

Hero (UTG), 1480
UTG1 (1500)
MP1 (1500)

Hero raises to 66 with K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], UTG1 calls, MP1 calls, all folds

Flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Hero bets 133, UTG1 calls, MP raises to 355, Hero ?

I would think a big part of his range is 88-QQ (obv QQ specifically is less likely because it may have been 3bet pf, but you know)

The amount is strange, though. It's like he doesn't want to shove but he also doesn't want to scare you away.

I may be the world's biggest nit, but if I were MP with AA, there's no way I would not have raised pre with a raiser and a caller behind. Wouldn't TT-JJ, some kind of combo draw, or even AJhh-AQhh be a lot of what is raising here?

I have a tough time seeing what you're behind.

Does AA flat call pf and invite what could be more than a 3 way hand? If he flopped a set, he might not put you on a FD but UTG+1 could very well be on one and would have to raise more to make him pay a higher price for the draw.

The only way I see you being behind to a set, for example, is if MP puts you on a big overpair, and is being tricky by raising to induce a shove from you which will knock out the FD anyways.

I couldn't fold this.

This is a [censored] ridiculous question, I apologize. I was cooking dinner when the tourney began, I saw two kings, I ran, raised, put the [censored] corn on hold, came back, bet, got raised, "oh [censored], it's a set, but it could be 88," pushed, he called with a set, I [censored] said "[censored]," then before eating posted because I wasn't thinking and am ashamed of myself, sorry, proceed.
