It is highly unlikely you were behind on the flop given the action in the hand. You need to call this.
What did you put the button on that led you to fold? AA-KK seem unlikely given the PF action as does any 2 pair hand. Looks like you got played by a flush draw or A-10 to me and you were getting pretty decent odds on your call considering your ahead here most of the time. |

For what it's worth, Button kindly showed his hand after he scraped the pot: KK.
I often fall prey to calling in this situation and losing to a higher pair. I take it I'm just experiencing a statistical anomaly? |

Yugoslav PS I'd call in the situation you describe above, btw... PPS Minus reads and whathaveyou.... |
