Yeah, that's why I would either bet/fold the turn or, much more likely, just fold the flop. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Is it too weak to say fold to his flop raise cuz I think thats my line. There are no apparent draws out there. You've showed strength by raising pf from the SB. Once you get raised, BB has K or 6 here vast majority of time I would think and both of those hands have you drawing to two outs. Pots laying you 9:1 and you need approximately 25:1 odds to make an instant call, factor in implied odds I still don't your getting right odds to call.

Posting blind:

Button, who is the turn aggressor, is the "kind of passive" guy who called 2 cold on a pretty dry flop. I probably fold this turn. If you were in position I'd say raise the turn and take a free showdown - charge draws and fold overs - but OOP you have to decide between calling and folding IMO.

Yeah. I agree with everyone that I should have folded. I almost convinced myself the raise was ok though [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img].

I got really mad with myself yesterday after this mistake and onetoher one just as bad or worse.

In hindsight I guess I tried to justify it as a self-defense mechanism.

I am pretty honest with myself, but judging from the last weeks (since I started keeping track of my mistakes) I some work on this. Or rather effort and goal-orientation.

What is important is that I improve. Not that I avoid making mistakes... by trying to rationalize them.

Thanks for all the input!
