Correct to get out of the way?

[lowroller]

1st hand and I run into this...given all the raising, I assumed (incorrectly) that someone was already there. Was I correct to bail??

IMO, a one-card OESD isn't worth much. I wouldn't even bet this flop -- I'd check/call here and fold if it were 2 to me.

I'll be interested in seeing if others feel this is too weak...

I'd probably bet the flop, too. When it came back to me for 3 more bets, I'd turbo fold.

1 card OESDs are nice, but they can't withstand all that action, IMO.
