Hero calls, you're only beat by a set. Do you know if he's raising every PP? This would make the call even easier.
Being the BB he might have hit all kinds of 2-pair hands or combodraws
edit: oops didn't see straight possibility, not sure anymore
edit2: forget the edit.. confusing to add the river if the action ends at the turn

I agree.

Since I have tried to adopt the Baluga Theorem into my game i have prevented myself losing a lot of money. (Thanks Baluga Whale!!!!) But two top pair without any flush draws is probably not the time to fold.

I just felt tha with no reads on him i was probably behind most all in bets???

No you're not. You probably lost to a set and now you're result oriented.

A2 has already made his straight by river so know what you mean.

I agree withbyour point about not changing strategy because of a few bad beats to sets.

At the same time surely you need to consider his range has you beat more when he betting that big???????

For the record it was a stone cold bluff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
