I always have trouble laying down my Aces.

I hated this flop.
When both villains attack on the turn, I know I'm behind.
When utg check-raises the river, can it be any more obvious?

My question is: When do YOU fold your aces?

Final Pot: 18.75 BB

Fold the turn.

In particular, UTG waking up out of nowhere on the turn scares me almost as much as MP's raise there.

let me guess:

you won!

at 6 Max, it would not surprise me!.

No, I was in distant 3rd place.
And I deservingly lost several bets

I was afraid of someone flopping 2 pair.
But it worked out in a different way.

MP flopped the nut straight with A:club: T:spade:

CO raised preflop and then called 2 more raises with T:diamond: 7:diamond:
He flopped a straight draw.
Turned the straight.
And hit a winning backdoor flush on the river.
