Best ever fold?
So this evening I played in my regular home game. Blinds were 1k/2k, I was in the big blind with K2o and bilnd-on-blind the small blind called. Flop came K85 rainbow, I know the player pretty well and earlier in this spot he had raised with a king from the small blind (I had called with JT and hit the jack). He bet 4K on the flop. Thinking that he might just have a big 8 like (Q8, J8 or even A8) I bet 12K to find out where I was. Way too much I know and thinking about it I could have found out just by re-raising to 8K.
He called and the turn came another king. He bet 6K and I instantly folded, face up to show him that I knew he had a king. Several players at the table said that this was a great fold but I don't think it was that great. I had to fold.
I remember a story about Neil Channing folding a full house face up against a better full house in a tournement. Can anyone think of any other crazy folds that have happend where the losing hand is massive?

Folding a weak K. Maybe take a big loan from your bank, stick it on here and go pro bud.
I once saw the Tower of London made out of a newspaper.
That was the best fold ever.
Origami FTW
We know alot more about romanello now though, he really does feel his opponents out well live. He's spoke about this hand a number of times, stating there was significant pre flop action and pegged him for A's or K's pre, all proceeding action backing up his initial read. It was an easy fold mostly he says
Not as impressive as romanello but not bad
Think Negranue just seems way to strong here.
