    Default Mistake folding this?

    I'm fairly sure it was:

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($3.03)
    UTG ($4.28)
    UTG+1 ($3.64)
    MP1 ($1.20)
    MP2 ($1.83)
    CO ($1.40)
    Hero ($4.97)
    SB ($4.07)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with K, J.
    UTG calls $0.02, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.02, 1 fold, CO calls $0.02, Hero calls $0.02, SB completes, BB checks.

    Flop: ($0.12) T, T, Q (6 players)
    SB bets $0.05, BB folds, UTG folds, MP1 folds, CO raises to $0.16, Hero folds, SB calls $0.11.


    Calling would cost 0.16 with a pot of 0.49, almost certainly 0.60, and with an OESD I definately had pot odds to do so (and with that board probably fairly good implied odds) as well as having position.

    It was basically habit made me fold, usually if I'm faced with a bet and a reraise, and I dont actually have a made hand I get out of the way, but in this case I think I had enough going for me that I should have stuck in.

    What do you think?

    I don't mind the fold at all, you are getting 2:1 odds to call the re-raise which is not enough on it's own. You might think you have implied odds but because there is a pair on the board and also a flush draw I think you need to fear reverse implied odds. You might hit your straight but still lose to a flush or boat. I'd wait for a better spot.
    Must get more aggressive - Tonight we dine in $25NL! rah rah rah! etc

    I like a call much better if the board isnt paired and is rainbow.

    Ok, cool.

    My thoughts were probably influenced by the A that hit on the turn. Other two had showed down with trip 10s v's 2 pair QT.

    Yeah, two of your outs are tainted (Ac/9c) and the board is paired so trip tens could boat up. Good fold.
