Anyone feel this is too weak? Raise the flop?

The pre-flop raise combined with the nightmare flop (and turn) made me pretty sure I was way behind here. Are there enough untainted outs to make the implied odds worth cold-calling the turn?

I'd do the same thing. People at that level will play any Ace or King a lot of the time.

Wait for a better spot. Good fold.

I think you played this one just fine. The pot is Huge (with a capital H) on the flop and I don't think there's any shame in calling, you're surely getting the implied odds to call and see the turn. Good turn fold.

Good hand. Crappy flop. Well played in my opinion.

A player betting into a preflop raiser and preflop 3better makes me think about folding after the flop. I know it's only one SB, but you're almost definitely behind 1 or 2 players, drawing to maybe 2 outs.
