Default Re: Two Pair could get me a huuuuuge pot

I think you realize this, but when you play hands like that to raises out of position, you can't fold when you hit hard.

Here is how I see the action:
Preflop: 4x BB raise and 3 cold callers... someone has a solid hand - probably UTG has something like AK or a pair.

Flop: Oh boy! Bottom two! However there is a flush draw out there and 4 others in the pot... I lead out here 100% of the time. Since you didn't, we continue. UTG makes a 1/4 pot sized bet? He's either sitting pretty or just plain sucks at poker... you should know better. In my opinion the min-reraise means almost nothing here since the initial bet was so small, and I reraise it to $25 here most of the time and MAYBE (because by the way the hand is playing out it looks like overpair vs draw or nothing) fold to a push by UTG.
