I probably would have if they had deeper stacks. I have more trouble knowing when my overpair is beat than any other thing. That's a scary board, I guess, but with shortstacks, I have a real problem laying down good hands.

Sadly, I ended with the third best hand.

Meh the flop should've had you folded. Because if they go all in, with what $6 some in the pot, then you know for a fact that they are on a monster draw or have trips. Your Aces are beat by a long shot in this case. I wouldn't have called that all-in because even if he was trying to steal the pot, he would've stole about $6. I can let go of that much when I'm up against monster draws/hands.

I think Aces are always hard to lay down though.

I would say taht with the kind of action you are getting on the flop it is fairly safe to say you are beat. I think I would let my time run down a bit and then fold.

Just because they seem to be shortstacks, I probably would have called and crossed my fingers that one of them was on a draw and one was on QQ or KK.

I don't think OESD is a "monster draw."

That being said, I agree that this was a fold in hindsight. I try to lay down hands like that, with two people in for so much in front of me.

It is if you can get two callers in there with you.
