Default Re: Really stupid reraise on my part. (looking for confirmation)

The play in red should have been a FOLD!!

The board has two pairs on it. You are beaten by anyone with an ace, a 3, an 8, or a pocket pair 4's or higher. There are 5 people in the pot, and someone almost certainly has you beaten.

Betting the river in this situation is close to insane, well actually it is insane. No one will call you with a hand you beat and at these stakes no one is going to fold any decent hand to your bet. You have 10 cents invested in the pot. Just wait for a better spot.

PS. I know you are a newbie, didnt mean to sound harsh, but betting/raising this river is like burning money.
