Default Not just wasting bets am I?

Villain is a bit on the loose and slightly aggressive side. Making sure these calldowns are standard, yeS?

At first I thought you were stuck in this hand, but after thinking about it some, I think you can safely fold it on the turn.

This really depends on your reads, especially your reads on UTG. If you're very sure you've got UTG beat here, I call down. But if he's a decent player, I think you can fold this on the turn. The pot's not very large at all, and even though villian is slightly aggressive, that turn raise feels like two pair or a set, if that's the case, you're drawing awfully thin, and you're not getting very good odds.

If UTG is just some fish here, I call down. If he's got some calling standards, I'd just chuck it on the turn.

Rough hand though.

I'd fold here in pots this small. Make these calls when there's something to play for.

I think in hindsight this was a fold with one caller I doubt UTG would raise anything that doesn't beat me, especially considering the pot it simply wasn't worth it.

I think that this would give me more incentive to fold.
