Would you have folded?

Late position. Pocket Aces.

You raise. One caller. Third guy raises. You re-raise, capping. Caller and third guy call.

5h/6d/7h flop ... third guy bets, you raise, other guy folds. third guy reraises, you reraise capping.

6c ... same thing through

2h ... he bets, i called.

would you have folded at any point?

i put him on queens or kings with all the re-raise prelop.

could have easily had A/K of hearts.

pot wound up being $40 in a $.50, $1 table.

should i have stayed in?

you overplayed your hand in my opinion, but i wouldn't have folded...

AT some point I back down knowing I ONLY have a pair. Would not fold bu I'd become a caller looking at 2 pair beating me!

People always over play pocket pairs. It's ONLY 1 pair!

Flop play is good. On the turn he bets into you after you capped the flop, so just call down. Folding isn't an option.

What does the preflop betting tell you about the other guy's hand?

I was right on, or close, by the way. He didn't show his cards (one of the things I hate most about poker), but I took down the $40 pot.

If your playing on Party then the cards of any one who did not fold are in the hand history. You can have your history emailed to you or you can view it while playing by clicking on the hand number on the upper right corner. I believe Paradise is like this too but I haven’t found an easy way to get a history while playing on Paradise.

If any one knows how to view a history from the paradise software please chime in [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I miss this on all other poker software, not being able to see what they mucked. Only other one that shows mucked at showdown is Full Tilt I believe.

What 2-pair are you losing to? With a pair on the board of the 2nd highest board rank, you can't be losing to any two pair, since you've got the highest one.

Perhaps you meant to say 2-pair on the flop that improved to a boat on the turn.

I am confused... if the river action was: He bets. You called. Then, he should show his cards first. And you'd show yours afterwards.

What am I missing?
