Oh I see, I forgot the most important aspect of this hand, Turn a 2 outer. That was the best answer.

I agree with you. Looking back I should have folded the flop. I just really wanted to gauge who would have folded this flop and who wouldn't, and how close it really is.

I see you're new, so I'll give you a couple pointers on posting. These play along type posts can generate some great discussion, but they really have to have interesting and debatable decisions on at least two streets, hopefully three, and on the off chance, four. In this case, the decision not to cap preflop isn't particularly close, and the turn and river played themselves. The flop is where your main question was anyway. When you have a hand where you have a question about just one street, mainly, you will generally get a better response by just posting the whole hand, or, better still, by posting all of the action right up until you have your important decision. You probably would have generated better discussion, and gotten the answer you wanted sooner, with a more straightforward post. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your stay on the board.

at which point?

Re: Play along - Pocket 10\'s (0.5/1)
 

When it's two bets back to you is a pretty good spot.

Re: Play along - Pocket 10\'s (0.5/1)
 

This is actually a fairly easy flop fold when it's two back to back to you. Your hand is almost never good here, you're vulnerable to overcards, and it's obviously going to be expensive to get to showdown.

jba - what wookie said - when button 3-bets the flop vs. what looks like at least one overpair, i'm out.
