Re: You have no idea how much I want to fold.
I'm probably folding to the 2 bets cold on the flop.
If my read is enough that I feel okay staying in for 2 more 'just in case' then I might fold for just the one more bet when the BB caps it because I know he's pretty gosh-darned serious and I'm probably beaten.
Based on the flop action I'm considering the chances that it will cost more than 1 bet on the turn and river to stay in and I'm just going to cut my losses now.
If I had the good hand (and I think we've all had the experience of folding winners before...oh well, it happens) then lesson learned and I make a note of what they had.
after you decide to stay in then calling down just 1 bet on the turn looks reasonable.
Maybe it's an A3 that just got counterfeited by the J vs. a flush-draw.
But on the river when it's a bet AND a call then I'm guessing I am beaten.
Am I really going to be good here about 7% of the time?
Somehow I don't think so.
but I have a tendency to occasionally fold winners when there are 2 other players still in the hand on the river THINKING that my top-pair with crappy kicker couldn't possibly have a chance anymore.
I'd be interested in what these players had (when your ready to spill the beans).
