this hand is doing my head in, please have your say2010 04 02

Hi all, so i've beeen taking a break from poker and i think i'm a little rusty.
this hand is killing me, i'm not sure if i played it right.
A little background, this is my group of good mates, we play a $20 sit n go's about twice a week, most players are good enough, nothing spesh. This was a rare cash game and no player was getting too reckless.

Me: AA (BB)
Plyr 1:
Plyr 2:

Me: Bets $5, fold, call, fold fold fold call fold POT = $15.50

FLOP: J J 6 rainbow

Me: Bets $12, call, call POT - $51.50 - at this point i'm putting player 1 on a J and plyr 2 i wasn't sure.

TURN: J

Me: Check Plyr 1 bets $45, plyr 2 calls, Me folds. POT =$141.50 - I checked to see the bet size and use that info to proceed. I understand the 3rd jack makes it more likely my opponents don't have a J. also plyr 2 flat calling had me a little concerned that if i misread plyr1, plyr2 could easily showdown the J. so i fold

RIVER: 3

Plyr 1 bets $50, plyr 2 calls POT = $242.50

Plyr 1 shows a bluff, plyr 2 shows a 6 for a full house.


So, was i right to fold? I can't raise the turn with two in the pot, if i call, i'm thinking i will have to put in another $70 on the river. Pot odds are good, implied odds are good, still i fold.

So good fold or bad fold....or cosi cosi?
Cheers

2nd chance: KK vs Andy Mcleod - High Stakes MTT Strategy - High Stakes MTT Forum

i'm reading this on the high stakes mtt forum of 2+2, and someone speaks of a reverse on the flop.
could somebody explain the reverse yeti.
does this person mean that andy mcloed's (BB) 3-bet on the flop is to act as a bluff, when he actually has it?
is that the reverse yeti? or have i got it totally wrong?this is new ground for me

cheers
