Would just like your thoughts on the above hand
Try to forget the result, as this time i should have called
Was it the correct fold over time?    or Isit a TERRIBLE fold?

    I should include the reads i had on the players
    Titepants calls everything pre, and called down with 10 high a little while earlier
    And Herbert1 has playing solid poker, nothing out of the ordinary

    with your reads I prefer betting flop

    I dont mind fold as played

    3 way action after a min raise UTG, + call + your 3 bet called in two spots, pre flop 3 bet sizing was practically perfect.

    A lead and a jam over the top, then comes back to you.  Result regardless your hand should already be mentally in the muck.  Let the crazies go busto, you simply cant call.  Herbert easily comes back over the top if you call, snaps off a jam if he's opened UTG with solid A.

    Only thing I would say is that if the Tite pants guy is playing that bad I likely make my 3 bet pre significantluy larger (on this occassion) as he's likely to be launching himself down the rabbit hole regardless  Probably in the 3200 range.

    Stop editing your posts chivers, surely no one is stupid enough to call with j5... what a clown. prob right fold over time normally someone has an ace here

    I think I would shove pre........

    Stacks r awkward, nothing wrong with ur raise size but I think shoving is just about an option with 21xbb and 11xbb stacks already in.

    Your standard 3b range is gonna b really strong here, a shove could look like a squeeze......

    Maybe I'm gonna lose value by shoving but I probably would.
