Trying not to stay attached to those big pocket pairs

[Inthacup]

Online 2 4 games last night. Game was soft with many limpers preflop, the skies were passive with a 20% chance of aggression.

3 limpers to me, I'm in LP with K /forums/images/icons/spade.gif K /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif . I raise, BB calls, as do the 3 limpers.

Flop: 7 /forums/images/icons/club.gif 5 /forums/images/icons/club.gif 3 /forums/images/icons/club.gif

Checked to EP, he bets, EP+1 calls, I raise, folded to EP, he 3-bets, EP+1 now caps and it's two more bets to me. I fold and decide to let the other 2 duke it out. To my surprise, EP now folds after 3-betting, and EP+1 takes it down.

Comments on my play? Anyone play this any differently?

Single suited flop, you have all the wrong flavor, capped on the flop, unless you're playing against brain dead opponents, you have no choice other than to fold.

With this many players I may pull a Mason here and just call the flop since the bet is right in front of me and the pot is large. Then I would raise if a non-club (and non-ace slid off on the turn). Make someone pay if they have a hand like Ac7h. Many people will come alive and 3-bet with just a nut draw here and since the pot is large I don't think the flop raise is as effective as u want it to be.

I think that you made a good fold. The board is too scary, and you have no redraws, and you don't really want to invest 3 more big bets here.

if these players arent likely to get this aggressive with a draw, id lay it down. your usually beat. player dependent. some will get this aggressive though.
