Yeah, by the turn I don't see what reasonable hand you could be ahead of. Good fold.

A better fold would have been preflop out of position vs a tight passive opponent's raise with only one other player in there.

Folding preflop is very bad IMO.

Do you really think it's "very bad"? Remember, this is not a default Party LAG we're talking about.

Doesn't matter. This guy's raising range here is broad regardless of his skill level. He's trying to isolate a probably weak openlimper and this hand plays fine 3-way as long as you got the postflop skills, which OP does.

Getting 5.7:1 with a button who plays poorly(tight-passive) we should be seeing every flop. We will almost always know where we stand postflop, and even if we didn't play better than him, we have more than enough hot-cold equity to make this work postflop. Folding assumes that by calling we will lose more than .5 BB/hand when we call. This simply can not be the case.

James' reply above is so far superior to my reply which was going to be "because."

You don't fold that hand in the BB for a bet, only if you're so fearful of your postflop play that you're only comfortable playing huge hands (i.e. a new player - said player shouldn't be jumping into the Party15 anyway).

I think i would muck to the flop 3 bet.

Me too. I don't play 15/30, but if opponent is tight-passive, I think it's unlikely that he's bluffing or drawing here. If you call 3-bet, what's your plan for turn? Fold unimproved?
