Comments on all streets please...

My intention was to c/r MP on the turn if a blank came, but when UTG+1 led and MP raises again i figured i was up against a big hand, most likely a set, is this sound?

Thanks...

I think this a really bad lay down.

I understand wanting to wait for the turn to C/R and make it two BB to the people in between, but WHY WHY WHY are you getting gunshy on that blank. It is ok to WAIT if and only if you plan on following through, otherwise just 3bet the flop.

Judging by the play after you fold, it looks like you could very well have been good.

DISCLAIMER: I am used to party poker, and if pacific players are that much better, then i will rescind my comments, but it would have to be absolute rock heaven before I lay this one down.

Its not sound.

You probably have the best hand, and if one of them has 2-pair you have a considerable amount of outs.

Board not scary at all.
