Should I have just folded Preflop...looking back, I'm not thinking he was going to fold to my river bluff, so I was boned there.

Against a 19/10 facing two you can let this go preflop, someone has you dominated.

I don't like the flop raise unless you' ve seen these guys make laydowns before.

When you miss the turn take every free card yoy can, I don't see ace high winng this much. Not with that kicker.

As played, I don't really like the flop raise since I'm not sure how often we don't get 3-bet and get a free card. I also don't bet the river because I don't think he's folding. If he's made it this far, the only hands I can see him laying down on the river are AxK[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and AxJ[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

Definitely fold preflop, and MP2 has a PP after he calls turn, so he is not folding to a river bet. I rather take my free card and check behind the turn.

Grunch

Wow, ugly right from the start. Yes, fold pf for one.

My first instinct was just to call the bet to let UTG1 build the pot for us, but it's big already so if we could win it early, that'd be good so I think the flop raise is good, though I don't think MP2 is going away very often after the pf 3 bet.

I think we need to follow up on the turn. A fold would be very good.

River sucks: I don't think we win w/ a showdown though. I don't hate a third barrel, but I think we're getting called a lot so it comes down to whether we think the villain will fold 1:9 times. So yes, I don't hate a desperate vet here trying to fold 99-KK, AK

*grunch*

Against a taggish villain, folding pf is right. Flop is good... raising to buy outs and potentially earn a free card (which you did not take on the turn, but should have).

Check behind on the river.

Edited to say: oops, didn't see that it was 3b preflop. Probably just call flop bet.

Fold preflop, check the turn, put no more money in on the river.

This is an easy fold against just one raise. In this hand I would fold AQ and probably JJ.
