It seems that lately when I have flopped a set the board either has a st8 draw or a flush draw. So I push to collect the pot. Am I more scared than I should be?
Here's an example hand. I read the 20 dollar bet on the turn as either a probe bet or a blocking bet to see the river card cheap. So I pushed to take the pot. What do you guys do when you flop a set on a scary board?
