Default result

this was the third time I had flopped a set that day, and I had lost the first two. maybe that influenced my decision, but for the life of me I couldn't put her on a hand I could beat. also, and just as important, the bb was still to act behind me. I really thought he had a small flush or straight. it has been a couple of years since I played with him, and I didn't remember how crazy he can play.

I folded, then the bb folded. then I wanted to throw up.

The much respected and admired snakehead admits defeat on a brutally misplayed strong hand. Respect for the admission.

I don't think I admitted to anything.

We're all guilty of making bad folds, bad calls, and bad raises from time to time when caught up in the moment. This is a very bad fold and i believe you already know that. You were an underdog with this action, but your call was definitley profitable given the pot odds

I think you have to call this river. CO is tight, but she did open in the CO which has to loosen her range a bit. SB's play is a bit disconcerting, but he could have 3-bet the flop hoping CO would scram. The turn raise is scary, but I just can't see ditching this on the river, or raising for the matter. Call and hope for 2-pair or a smaller set.

This one isn't hard at all. Call. Raising is a pretty big mistake and folding is a decent enough mistake I would think.

This one shouldn't confuse you.

I wouldn't expect an online player to understand the subtleties of this hand. and I agree it's an automatic call online.
