I would have folded after your opponent's re-raise on the flop. It's likely you are dominated at that point by A 10, A J, or A Q. If you call the re-raise, and no help comes on the turn, i.e., an 8, then I would check-fold.

I have paid the price far too many times when I have hit top pair in the BB. I really don't like risking my chips in the BB. I will check-fold that situation almost everytime unless Ive hit two pair or the only person to bet is the button and I think hes bluffing. I guess your first bet is ok, but I really don't like your calls the rest of the hand. You almost certainly have a losing hand after the raise on the flop and even an eight might not save you.

Agree with Douglan, I would have been out at the re-raise.

What does everyone think of that re-raise? If I were pokerngolf I would have just called.

Same as Douglan
