Simple One, Was the fold the right play here, or should I have called.

Really quick one here, because even though it worked out for me, I want to see if my thought process was correct.

6 Max table
.02/.04 Limit
Global Poker

Stack Sizes
SB HERO - 119.5 BB
BB - 97.25 BB
MP2 - 90.75 BB
MP3 - 94 BB
CO - 127.75 BB
BU - 55 BB

Hero Dealt
8♠: 8♦:

MP2 Folds
MP3 Calls 1 BB
CO Raises 3 BB
BU Calls 3 BB
SB HERO Calls 2.5BB
BB Folds
MP3 Calls 2 BB

TOTAL POT - 13 BB

FLOP
J♥: 6♠: T♣:

SB HERO Checks
MP3 Checks
CO Bets Checks
BU Bets 1 BB
SB HERO Folds
MP3 Calls 1 BB
CO Calls 1 BB

Remainder of the hand

Spoiler

TOTAL POT - 16 BB

TURN:
J♥: 6♠: T♣: 9♠:

MP3 Checks
CO Checks
BU Bets 1 BB
MP3 Calls 1 BB
CO Calls 1 BB

TOTAL POT: 19 BB

RIVER:
J♥: 6♠: T♣: 9♠: 7♦:

MP3 Checks
CO Checks
BU Checks

MP3 Shows A♠: K♦:
CO Shows Q♦: A♥:
BU Shows T♠: 4s:

Winning hand is BU with pair of 10s

So my reasoning for folding the flop even though it was a min bet was because I knew anyone with a Ten or a Jack had me beat.

Sorry for the non exciting hand review but I write down each hand I want to review after I play it. This board is super helpful!

I personally wouldn't have folded. You are offered a ridiculous price and you have some chance to improve your hand.

Math is knowledge bro, you have about 4,5% to hit a set on the turn, facing odds of ~6% (assuming all of them will call the 1bb)

Yea but we might hit a gutshot too which would let us call the turn limp again. Also we might be ahead even if we don't win. And we might be able to get a lot of money from some hands if we hit a set.

But yea, If we assume we have 0% equity with our pair and believe there is no more money to be made on later streets if we hit and also assume there is some action on the turn so we don't see river for free... Then it starts to look like a fold.
