Limit Big O...easy fold? Limit Big O...easy fold?

Raise button with a-2-4-6-J,suited ace.

5 way action to flop.

6-6-Q, no suits.

Loosest player at the table leads, second tightest player makes it 2 bets, tightest player makes it 3 bets!

I have to put tight player on case 6 and other player on Queens full, no?

As it was, I would have backdoored low and got 6thed. Second tightest player folded turn and tightest player had A-2-6-Q for flopped boat.

The orginial better tabled J-J-A-2 (forget his 5th card). He is very loose player, though, so was not surprising.

Yeah, that's a pretty easy fold based on the player descriptions.

We saw the loose guys hand. The first tight player could not have queens full or a 6.

Tried to isolate with Kings? 3 aces are gone, between my hand and the hands that were shown.

And, if we don't know players, is the fold still that easy?

Was really aggravating to have to fold there. Three bets in front of me, I have a six, so only one six and queens full left!

Yeah, I think I still fold chasing bottom boat with the raises in front. Too easy to bleed money in limit games because it is "only one/two bets".

I think it's a good fold whether you know the players or not. There are no straight, flush, or low draws on this flop, and three people are saying they like it—how is that even possible given that you have a 6 in your hand? One player has an overpair and/or is bluffing, one player has the other 6 with or without a Queen, and one player has pocket Queens. That's really the only explanation that makes sense (even though apparently it wasn't true in this case).

You don't have sufficient pot odds to call three bets cold to chase the low, and your high hand is essentially never good here. You could fill up and it still might not be good. When you realize all that, yes, it's an easy fold.

I was stuck in the game. Was so happy to see the flop.

Couldn't believe the action.

Made a pissed off fold.

Given that all sixes were accounted for, and 3 of the aces, think 2nd tightest player made a off the wall move with kings, which if heads up, might have worked, but the sixes woke up behind him.

With Q-6 with back door low I understand.

if this kind of fold makes you upset then your valuation of hands are probably off by some greater than average margin

It's a pretty aggravating fold when you raise on the button and there is $100 in middle, after not winning piece of a pot for 2 hours.

You see flop, not perfect, but looks good! Then 3 bets to your face.

Kind of in your face. I know it is big O, but how do they have other 6's and Queen's full!

it's like pocket kings in holdem, where I comes Q-J-10 three of a suit you do not have and tree bets to your face, before you can even act. It's frustrating.

To be honest, those kinds of hands happen pretty often. I dont get aggressive with the under boats because it is not uncommon to run into the upper boat.
