What makes you think SB had a pair? I would call and expect to see overcards or 4x/5x hands a decent amount of the time. |

Re: Folding in a Big Pot
SB is donkbetting into 3 other on this river after I CR the field on the flop and lead the turn. If SB doesn't have a pair I have to be wary of the others behind me to have one.

Re: Folding in a Big Pot
I think the river is good. Even if SB is full of it (edit: which I think is unlikely into 3 people), I don't think you'll see the two guys behind you have less than a 6 often enough.
I'd just bet the flop though and hope LAGgy raises. Our hand is quite vulnerable. |

Re: Folding in a Big Pot
I think you have the best hand often enough here to call (1 in 12-14, depending upon number of callers behind you). Although Instabettor probably has you beat, I think there is a substantial enough chance (10-20% IMO) that he is bluffing at it by representing a straight or trips (or quads or 2-pair).
I admit that the players behind you make me less confident that this is the right decision (I'm folding to a raise behind me), but I think this is one of those situations where you don't fold on the river: that is, a decent hand in a big pot. |

I don't think this is an easy call (I don't think you can call at all!) 1 - you've got your 2pr counterfieted 2 - you've got players behind you I think overcalls here are completely unwanted. IMO, this is a good raise or fold scenario. You don't want others to come in calling behind you, you want to get 2 players only to showdown - you and the SB. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think there is a 10% or greater chance this is a desperation move on his part to win a big pot, designed to make you think what you're thinking. In other words, this may be just the sort of move to make a 2-pair hand fold along with the busted drawing hands. Also, his Instabet could just be an attempt to show strength when he has none. |

Re: Folding in a Big Pot
Running 8s are quite possibly the worst cards that could come off the deck. Anyone with a straight draw off the flop now made a straight or trips. Folding is fine imo.
