Default Cursed rockets!

I was thinking that both opponents were drawing to very few outs collectively so I planned to raise the turn on a safe card. I should have capped the river... but should I fold this turn? Bah. Lemme have it...

BB is slightly loose, aggressive/aggressive. MP is a fish...

I think you played the hand fine, although MP's turn raise probably means he has a 3. The pot is large though and BB is padding the pot with a hand the is surely drawing very thin.

Oh yeah, that color scheme on your converter makes me want to vomit.

It's tough to lay it down.

UTG probably is betting out with a medium pocket pair like 88.

MP that came to life on the turn probably limped in with something like A3 suited or K3 suited or a set of deuces.

If he has deuces he would probably keep you in with his fullhouse and decide to just call the turn to not scare you away.

When he sees the king and bets out into 2 players that called the turn he seems to be pretty confident of his hand.

I think this is an easy fold on the turn. When a loose passive guy raises the turn after the flop was raised and 3bet, he has you beat 95% of the time, IMO.

I would have capped the flop then folded when it was 2 to me on the turn.

EDIT: You did say MP is a fish, so calling might be an okay line if your thinking he would slowplay something like 88, but agianst any decent player it's a fold.

I think we can find a fold on this turn.

The pot is under 12 bets at that point, we're facing putting in 3 BB minimum to win a pot that looks to be about 15 BB or so. So we need to win like 18% of the time or whatever. MP's raise seems to be very, very unlikely to be a small pocket pair or a 6 or something like that considering how much action developed on the flop. He'll have 45 or A3 the vast majority of the time.

I don't see much reason not to cap the flop, either.
