Am I stupid to fold top pair w/ paired board ...
Given stack size, I'm not sure if I should just put the MP1 since the hand has been folded to me; villian & I are heads up and he's got $20 total.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) converter Button ($28.5) SB ($72.31) BB ($99) UTG ($86.5) UTG+1 ($108.75) UTG+2 ($39.8) MP1 ($20.75) MP2 ($54.6) MP3 ($47) Hero ($103.15) Preflop: Hero is CO with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.5. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls $1, MP1 calls $1, MP2 calls $1, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $1, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) completes, BB checks. Flop: ($6) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font> SB checks, BB checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets $5.7</font>, MP2 folds, Hero folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+2 folds. Final Pot: $11.70 |

I'm wondering why you limped pre-flop. I generally raise or fold in your situation.

The main problem here is that if you push and someone other than MP1 calls, you are in deep [censored]. I'd go ahead and call and see what happens on the turn. He could easily have a flush draw, 89, any low pair. Reads would help as well, if you have any.

I'd say your hand is good far more often than not here. With others acting behind, it's a tough choice between calling and putting him all in. I'd do the latter.

Re: Am I stupid to fold top pair w/ paired board ...
Heads up I reraise here after the flop make it 30 to go. Thats a clear indication of where your at. I suspect your ahead here but if he comes over the top its an easy lay down. I wouldnbt be too afraid of villian making a play here if he didnt have the 7. People at this low level tend to play straightfoward and i doubt he would go over the top of you unless he had you beat. But again folding isnt poor as there are many people in this hand. If its heads up i reraise, however with 5 to the flop i see it as a not so bad fold. But dont go all in. I dont know who said that but thats horrible. The only person who would call an all in there would be the one iwth a 7. And youd push out all the other people with K10 j10 q10. Going all in there is a newbie move that costs them a lot of money. WHoever posted that please feel free to play at my games.

Sorry i take it back given stack sizes i would raise there to 20 moving MP in. If he has a seven then you cant get any extra cheese on ur pizza if he doesnt as he prob has j10 q 10 than drinks on u

I put him all in if I were you in this situation. This is j 10 more often than it's a 7.
