I'm just trying to point out that folding simply because you have a weak hand like TP3K without first putting your opponent on a range of hands is bad poker.

It's very similar to calling big bets with AA postflop on scary boards because "AA is a big hand" even when you should know you're behind your opponents range of hands.

Poker 101 is that you don't make decisions solely based on your own cards.

True.True.True.

I just looked at your results and the other comments and I learned a couple of things:

1) I am weak-tight [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
2) I see too many monsters under the bed
3) Unrasied pots scare me (see point #1)

Upon reflection I was giving too much credit to CO-1, but I'm still not positive I should have discounted all x2 hands except A2 (K2 is 98% calling here), given the PF limpfest.

I guess this is why I rarely limp, I don't know how to play an unraised pot! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Good post, and great discussion.
