Set pushes the turn on a very scary board.

At this point in the hand, having villain fold isn't a bad thing, even against a hand as badly beaten as QQ....Note that with as much dead money as is already in the pot, I'm not even making much of a mistake in pushing against a made straight: my full house outs make this a roughly break-even play.

Fine, I'm about 3.3-to-1 against versus the straights. Whoopee. If villain pushes this turn instead of me, I'm almost right to call even if I know he's got a straight. That's all I meant. It came out of my mouth all hinky, that's all. The point is that the dead money REALLY buffers this pot, and if he folds, I'm not unhappy.
