    Default is this a retarded call of the 3-bet?

    I had just joined the table, so no reads yet. This is my first blind hand and I flop the ass end of a straight, but there are a lot of top pair/two pair/wimp-limped set hands that could go nuts here...I really only fear 1 hand - K9. If someone limped AK and got tricky, fine I pay.
    I don't fear the CO - I fear MP1's hand as I have shown extreme strength here in a limped pot outta the blinds and he pushes over...should I fold the last $16?

    I dont think so, it appears to me like you got your money in while you where ahead....

    Difficult to place somebody on AK here and I pay it off, I would geuss re-raiser would have something more like KQ/KJ/T9/J9 with a pair and OESD.......And the other could be a range as JT/QJ/TT.....

    But then again, you said something about K9, so he flipped it and took the pot correct?

    Yea it wasn't a limped AK...it was the one hand I feared...

    MP1 shows K 9 (a straight Ace high)
    CO shows J T (two pair Jacks and Tens)

    I thought about not calling after MP1's push post my 3-bet...but this site has so many bad players I just couldn't do it...one of the pitfalls of playing with 60% donks/weaklings and the rest decent and above.

    You can't seriously be questioning this. You got your $$ in w/ a flopped straight, c'mon.

    Fucking results post. I put him on K9 and fold this one. Even if your straight is good, the hands doing this have outs against you. The key here is you're up against passive players in a nothing pot. Going broke here with the 3rd nut w/o a re-draw is a leak.

    Definitely results-oriented, so my apologies...I came crying to the forums to see if I could get some sympathy...but I don't even get a rag

    LOL actually this is just confirmation...I don't think there's much chance I could lay this down at these stakes, but I did have an opportunity and considered it - normally there's not this much action on an obvious straight board with the BB going nuts.

    I enjoy the sarcasm tho - I'll try to take the embedded message to heart.
