Great 10/20 game at local club. Usually a very aggressive game but the a few of the local wildmen have yet to arrive so the game is rather passive. Five limpers to me on the button and I hold Q /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif 9 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif and call. Blinds call and we see the flop 8 handed for a single small bet each.
Flop- 5 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif 3 /forums/images/icons/club.gif 3 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif
It's checked all the way around.
Turn- 5 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif 3 /forums/images/icons/club.gif 3 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif
SB bets out, BB raises, UTG coldcalls $40 and it's folded around to me. I felt there was a good chance I could be drawing dead on my flush draw and mucked my hand after some thought. I am fully aware that results don't matter and I would still be posting this if the /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif didn't arrive on the end to give me the pot. With a pair on the board and a raise coldcaller on the turn I truly felt that my chances of drawing to the best hand were nearly impossible. There was also JUST enough to warrant a call odds-wise in the pot(excluding implied odds). Was my fold correct? Was not betting out on the flop incorrect? Any opinions? Thanks in advance.
