    Why are you calling this preflop?!

    Fold the flop also.

    At this early stage I fold to the first raise, to the re-raise and on the flop. This betting pattern (re-raise to 3x the UTG raise and AI on the flop with a flush draw out there) looks like QQ-AA to me rather than overcards.

    Maybe you can take us through your thought process here because I'm curious as to how you could conclude that 66 unimproved is good vs. 5 opps calling a 12xBB raise....


    Even if it's just two hearts overcards you are not ahead here...

    I have played against the BB a few times he over bets high cards. When he fired out that big of a bet I knew he missed and had highcards only.

    The flop bet really isn't that big. Anyone over-playing AT pre-flop really has no choice but to fire that bet out here.

    There are also two players to act behind you who called 8x BB pre-flop. Somewhere, you have to beleive there is a better pair than 4's.

    I find an easy fold at this stage (I also would have folded pre-flop).

    Definitely fold pre flop! Poker Tracker has taught me well that pairs played from here to an early raise has cost me a lot of chips/$$
