Default I just got called a fish.

I just got called a fish for this hand. Specifically, that I should have never played the hand, nor called the turn bet. I feel so helpless in the face of their taunts.....

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG+1 posts a blind of $0.5. MP2 posts a blind of $0.5.
UTG calls, UTG+1 (poster) checks, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (8 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(8 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, MP1 checks, MP2 checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (4 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(8 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, Hero calls, SB folds, BB folds.

River: (6 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 10 BB

It's a bit lower than I traditionally play, but with all the money in there already, fish it up.

Side question: If UTG+1 and UTG+2 call the turn does Hero raise?

Easy turn call. No reason to think any of your outs are bad. Good hand.

You are a fish.

Easy call for me preflop with that many people in.

Turn is easy call with 5:1 on a 2.5:1 shot.

"Screw you you shouldn't have played that hand."

"Why the hell did you call that turn bet?"

You're response:
"Man, my dog keeps barking. I can SEE the air, man! Where am I now in a poker chat room or something? Oh dude I'm soooo highhhhhhh..."

Then take all their money.

Seems like most people play this PF. Even at .5/1 dont think I would, even 8 handed. But since you did I think you played it fine. A lot of people at this limit don't understand odds and think any kind of draw is "chasing." Ignore em

No way, and for two reasons:

1) With 12 outs, you don't have the equity for it. A pair won't win this hand for you... probably, maybe the 7, but it's doubtful.

2) If you did, if could still get re-raised behind you and someone might drop: killing your equity further.

3) It kills your action on the river.

... I guess I can't count.
