Did I slow down too soon?

This fold standard?

UTG+2 is 21.9/4.49/1.15

I think it's a good fold. CO raising pretty much seals your fate. I see no reason to suspect a desparation bluff.

i probly bet out on the turn, we could be up against KJ or AQ, in a pot this big, im not likely to fold this river, if the queen pairs i think for a minute, then call

i would lead the turn and base the rest of my play from there.

the way you played it i agree with folding the river.

ya this played out completely not how i wanted it. I needed to lead or pop the turn.

I don't know how i could have called the river the way it played out.

CO raised with J5o. SB had Q8s

Yeah lead the turn, the pot is ginormous! Fold the river here, but without the raise I would have overcalled.

For the love of all that is holy, Party is FULL of morons.

For the record, I lead the turn. I fold the river the way you just played it.

And hands like these make my buddy list grow, along with the number of mice I have destroyed.

Def lead the turn, but I don't think a check-raise is good. Folding the river is good the way you played it.

Is 1.15 AF high?

I agree with this fold. After the flop and turn I have pretty strong doubts that the aces are still good, when CO raises the river against all that flop action on the river, it's a nail in the coffin.
