Did I bet too much on the flop? Is this an easy but painful fold to the raise? I reckon I'm probably not against a draw and hoping to chop or maybe even be against KQ or have outs vs 2 pair. I think if there were less callers pre I would've bet less on the flop and been able to get away from a push. Is everything fine except my call which is horrible?

thanks

Your preflop raise is absurdly huge. 3-4x for an open raise is standard.

The way the hand was played, you have to go broke there.

thanks. Can you or someone else refer me to a discussion of why one should determine bet-size based on the blind rather than the stacks around the table?

that would be awesome,
thanks again
