$11 PS $15,000 guaranteed. Overpair to board ... now what?
 

Already in the money ... but barely

I certainly don't want anyone to catch up as I am ahead of most hands ... but I also don't want to stack off to a set.

What now?

Bet 10k and stack off. Don't fear sets. Calling ranges include all manner of hands that have missed this flop by a mile, some of which will get it in behind. If cold-caller is an aggro monkey who always bets when checked to, then I like a check shove. Or possibly 3bet shove.

Well, you're going to if he has one. Stacks simply aren't deep enough for you to get away from this, or determine your opponent has a set with any degree of certainty.

Bet 12k or push....I like the push....looks weaker with that type of flop....either way you are going to see the river., you can't escape this hand.
