Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB caps</font>, Hero folds, SB calls.

Flop: (10 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, SB calls.

Turn: (6 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, SB calls.

River: (8 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

No ,I'm genuinely wondering if this is a good fold. They always show down BS IMO.

It could be a mistake, but I'm not folding here. Even for just the sake of my table imagine. Also if your opponents are known for steal bets, you could even have the best hand or not be far behind. I'm 3betting any pocket pair agains a steal bet, K10s+ as well and I know a lot of aggressive TAGs do similar.

YOu might get skewed responses as well since you posted the flop :P

This is an easy fold, wayyy too great a chance of being dominated.

Just making sure. I was being too results oriented I guess. Both times I folded in this bet-3bet-cap situation the flop gave me the nuts (KKQ and JT9) and I wanted to cry.

I dont fold this considering its a steal re-steal situation. You have position and get to see how the hand develops. If you were utg and then a non blind 3bets and then gets capped than I would fold.

way way way way way way way way way way way way easy. Dont let post flop results make u feel different. Would u feel bad about folding 72o to a raise in the BB when the flop is 772? You shouldnt because its a good fold.
