yes it was definitely correct to fold. the reasons are as follows: 1. obviously you are not winning right now. there are certainly pocket pairs out, and you will need to improve to win. 2. considering the action, it is very likely that someone has AA or KK and is severely dominating you. it is very likely when you improve by catching a pair, that wont be enough- this negates any advantage you'd get from this being a multiway pot, and renders your pot odds insufficient. 3. there is a decent chance that someone else has AK, in which case...even if no one has AA or KK, 2 of your outs are gone, and youre drawing to split the pot.

you have to fold, and perhaps shouldve folded to the first bet preflop (although im not sure)

The first bet is an easy call.

I think you played it perfectly. . . good fold.

Can you say results oriented? Yes that's a good fold barring any read that the all in is a maniac.

Eh... out of position and having two raises in front of you, I could see folding the AK to the first bet. The stacks are a bit deeper here than on Party, so it wouldn't be awful to call. Still, it's tough to play AK out of position to two previous raises.

the only reason i call the first reraise is because the re-raiser is all in. if he wasnt all in i would think about folding, barring a read.

Given the stacks, I'd re-raise or fold when it first got to me. There appears to be no value in calling to hit a pair as stacks are too short, and a further preflop raise is also likely.
