    I raised too small out of the flop which I know, I'm positive the table would have folded down if I raised too much more though so I was trying to avoid that. Call it up or fold em?

    invest your entire life savings into that pot... you cannot be beaten at this point, you have the absolute nuts (after the flop) there is nothing that they can have that makes you an underdog to win this hand... odds are that you have a guy's set dead to quads.... any sort of draw he would flat call and hope to hit it...

    WTF are you folding for????????

    YOu have the nuts for this five card hand! To even CONSIDER Folding here is the weakest of the weakest plays ever..... SO WHAT IF HES GOT A DRAW??? Hes probably Got AJ, AQ, KJ, JJ or some other typed hand. Even if hes got a draw, who fucking cares?? Its only going ot hit 1/3 times, your a 2-1 favorite (at worst) getting a littel better than 2-1 on your money.... CALL......

    EDIT: BTW, your PF bet may have been a touch small, but its fine, 3 bb raise is okay dokey for most tables, FLop bet is good, DONT THINK ABOUT FOLDING!

    Umm... I don't play a lot of no limit hold'em these days, maybe I've gotten a bit rusty... but I must be missing something here.

    Is this a joke?

    why is this even a conscious decision? if you fold here you deserve to be hung from a sequoia tree in Palo Alto California with Phil Hellmuth in a drill sergeant's uniform cussing you out while ants are poured down your pants with squirrels gnawing at your balls...

    Fold, there is no need to gamble your whole stack when you are only a 3:1 favorite.
