Default Re: Fold top 2 pair?

Why does having it capped make you so ill? It's not like we have all that many live outs if behind.

I basically look at it this way: My hand is totally worth putting in 4 total BB on the last two streets. Raising the turn has protection value in case the late position player has a gutshot or something like that. I figure I'm still way ahead on average when that fourth bet goes in. If a fifth bet goes in, I may not be ahead, but I figure the value we gain on bet #3 is greater than the value we lose if it goes to bet #5.

How bad will you feel if you lose this pot to a rivered gutshot? The UTG player is a lag. Don't get so afraid so early.
