I can't fold on the turn here. SB could have a set in which you're drawing to 2 outs, but he might also easily have 2 pair w/JQ, in which case a 9,6, or A are winners for you, giving you 8 outs. If SB is way out of line he could even have AQ. I say SB is your main concern, but that you might not be in that bad of shape and the pot is way too big to fold. I say MP2 has KK and button has some pair on the board or a pocket pair he refuses to let go of.

I call this one to river and feel fine if I lose a few bets here. If I find out I folded the winner on the turn I tilt and spew a few more chips over the next 10 minutes.

I don't think there is ever going to be a good ending to this pot and that you are going to tilt for a couple hands no matter how is goes...

Unless you win and you just go
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! YOU FOOLS!!!!

The turn fold is bad. And calling the river would be bad, too. It might save you some sanity, but your sanity comes at a price. I don't think he has just one pair.

Exactly. It wouldn't be the first time either.

So you would agree with Shant to call and fold the river UI?

Preflop: Clearly correct.

Flop: I actually cap this flop. Small Blind could have 2 pair QJ, but could also have KQ, KJ, etc. Aces just don't come along that often, so I cap.

Turn: Agree w/ the bet here, the fact that SB continues to raise makes me think he either does have the 2 pair or just hit his straight draw, so either way you are probably dead in the water, but I"m not giving up on a pocket overpair that easily, so I call it down from here.

River: Agree.

Villain would need to be crazy to check-3-bet/check-raise/bet TPTK or worse. He might be crazy, but I don't think he's a crazy villain often enough (once in 100 times, perhaps).

I don't bet the turn after a "reasonable" SB check/3bets the flop in a pot that was capped preflop. Hoping to counterfeit two pair here...we may be further behind than that. Tough hand.

Don't do this. I know it is painful to call, but you could be up against a set and still have correct odds to call here. Add to this the times you are drawing against two pair or even up against one pair or a donk bet, and you see why folding with 23 bets in the pot is probably not a good idea. It is possible you are drawing dead against the straight but the pot is too big to fold.

I think you can call the turn, you are likely up against 2 pair, so you have odds to call. But I would fold the river ui, it is a tough fold, but I don't see you being ahead of SB.
