Folding is tight-weak. Simple as that.

That's fine. That's all you needed to say. I've been playing NLHE for a few years and do well, but I've only been playing O8 regularly for half a dozen weeks or so. I have no problem pushing strongly with decent draws and such... but the paired board here confused me and made me question whether I should be in this hand or not.

"In fact, I would've reraised the pot preflop without a shred of doubt." That's the other thing I'm confused about... is this hand better against one player or many? What's a better drawing hand vs HU hand. This is why I'm never sure whether to reraise or not. (Except when shortstacks are raising... I isolate to get them headsup a lot if I can get their stack in pf)

If you're seeking reinforcement of a tight-weak strategy that has extremely low variance, FCP forum will help you with that. Nothing wrong with it, but you're just trading win rate for reduced variance. Suboptimal, but calm.

Not sure what FCP is. I'm not seeking reinforcement of any strategy. I'm trying trying to learn the intricacies of this game.

I thought that one didn't want to risk a huge portion of their stack without scoopability. I thought because I didn't have a 3, I might be foolish to stick around. I'm just trying to learn here. If I'm wrong, that's cool... I'm here to learn from the better and more experienced players.
