View Full Version : When to fold on the flop?

In looking back at this, should I have just check-mucked from the flop and moved on? Board was coordinated in both rank and suit, I had middle pair and a gutshot...

Nothing on either villain. At showdown, I actually had the third best hand LOL...

Check this flop and see where you stand. I may raise if the button bets but you are out of podition with a marginal hand. And I agree with everyone else. You are spamming this board.
