had this in a small BH (9.25 £2.20) raised 3 times BB and got two callers pretty innocuous flop thought the blind had hit maybe top pair I really did not think to long and raised his min bet, on reflection perhaps I should have folded when he pushed but is this an easy fold?

cheers for taking the time to reply dude but bad beats like sarcasm (Yawn) are ten a penny I would like to hear from players if I donked of my
acidman27 you seem to have missed the point i do a normal 3 times raise (4 times max)I dont want to steal the blinds or get everyone to fold i want someone to call, he calls then bets 50 into 600! so I think he has hit the flop (middle pair or two over cards) I then raise to just over half the pot (350) at this point i still want a call he then pushes (you say make a pot size raise but he would still push here) I did not think to hard and made the called, but on reflection and this is my question what could he have to push? and could I have worked it out for a fold, Im not worried about my AA being beat happens far to often to put it up on the forum.
if I thought about it i could have put him on trips,
I didn't miss the point really. I just didn't explain what I meant very well.
If that's your normal raise then that's fine, i'd personally stick it upto 200 instead of 150, then the 4,2 may not have called. Having said that, why was he calling for 150 with 4,2 ? and he's probably still call if you had put in 200. Just bad luck.
After the flop i'd make a ¾ to pot size bet yes, and the outcome would still be the same you’re right, but it’s hard to put him on a hand here, Bounty Hunters can cause players to over play simple holdings like top pair so I’d still probably call the all in.
i would stick to your standard bet at 150 as you will get the same answer, add 50 for each person limped in
keeping a standard bet will get other people to play against it and when you have a strong hand like this then jackpot, obviously as with all strong hands you have to just be very observant post flop. The above hand is just a cooler and i doubt anyones getting away from this
