Good fold?

Was I too quick to fold here? It was a min bet, but I figured losing more than needed on a hand where I had nothing wasn't a good idea. It's a clear fold if faced with a real bet. I'm not sure given that it wasn't, however. What do you think?

I'll take a crack, and please feel free to blast any mistakes..........

You have no pairs, no chance at a flush, and need runner/runner to make a straight 3-7. Even if an A hits, you are most likely outkicked. So, anything but folding would be boneheaded. Min raise or not, unless you are going to blast that flop with a pot sized bluff (which would be risky due to you not raising pre-flop), your hand is over.

easy fold

You missed one more thing.

It's a pretty small pot.

Ok, good.

See, at least one of the hands I'm posting was played right!

I feel like I'm going to be regarded as an idiot by the time I'm through posting my iffy hands from this weekend, but (4-tabling or not) I made some bonehead plays and want to make sure I have a firm grasp on what areas I misplayed before returning to the table.
