Re: Flopping two pair in the blinds
first of all, you can not fold the river - the pot is so big you'd have to be about 95% sure you're beat. It's just pure math even if you feel strongly that your beat.
second, I like the way you played the hand all the way .. here's why - you can't c/r the flop, it's way too dangerous to give a free card as it presents many str8 and flush draws and you don't want gutshots checking behind you. the turn is aggressive and I like it with top two pair and no completed draws - if you had bottom two or top/bottom it would have been overly aggressive to 3 bet. sound to me like someone hit lucky trips on 5th st. or else is a 2/3 suited fool - either way, I can't be sure I'm beat but I suspect it - pay it off. well played - you'll be taking their moolah in the long run.
