What's up with the flop check?

Ah, jeez. It looks to me like you're probably behind, without much in the way of outs. If somehow you're not behind, you probably have a lot of cards to dodge.

I think I'd just fold. We have three players showing interest, along with one person who cold-called three bets, and all it takes is for one JT to be out there to leave you drawing to a backdoor flush and a runner-runner boat. Even if the best hand you're up against is two pair, with this many players in who seem to like their hands, it's going to be hard to feel good about the board pairing.

Yeah, it sucked. My weak mind was thinking "this flop sucks, hopefully it gets to LP and he bets and I can raise him, ruh roh"

Just fold and steam for a bit.

Well, it doesn't really look like you have many outs, so I don't hate getting out now, particularly since you're not closing the action. But I think it's a lot easier to play if you lead out and see what happens after you.

I recommend that you not continue on with this hand.

Simply put: it just got bet, raised, and reraised behind you, on a board with plenty of big hand potential. You have one pair.

When you think of it that way instead of thinking about it as "I have Aces" it will seem much easier to fold.

And never, ever check this flop. That's just silly. If the flop gets checked through you are going to feel really retarded.

Punches himself in the nutz for not betting the flop and then caps.

Fold and save yourself from the "I can't believe AA never wins" speech when someone turns over two pair/straight/flush/set
