You don't have the odds to continue. Try this exercise, tell us how many outs you have. What are the current pot odds? What are the odds of hitting your hand? How many bets can you make up if you hit your hand?

Yes!
I understand now, I need to give him more credit for the PF 3bet.
The pot is laying me 11 to 1.
To hit my set... 2 outs, is about 23 to 1.
CLEAR FOLD

Even if I am ahead (I see now, slim chance), I can get outdrawn fairly easily. (Flush, straight, any card higher than an 8).

you have more outs than that.

Two 8's left in deck 2 outs
ok, Backdoor str8 draw, 1.5 outs
Backdoor flush draw 1.5 outs, discounted to .5 outs for one card, the 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. (would give me Open ended str8 flush draw)
So 4 outs?
I need 10.75 to 1, and i'm getting that?

You did all the work. It looks like a pretty thin edge on the flop. The turn is going to define this hand then.

You seem to know what you are doing. Good job.
