flopped middle set against 2 players, did I get max. value?
 

CO was rock solid and would only raise with pretty much only the nuts and monsters, so him cold calling flop and turn was weak. No real reads on the BTN but turns out he mucked A-A. I knew I was golden at the flop, but should I have bet more on the river, perhaps even push all-in? Could I have milked more out of that?

This whole hand is butchered. You should have ended up all in on or before the river.

Reload preflop.
Make a real raise preflop.
Flop bet is ok but could be more.
Turn bet should be around $7.50.
River as played should be a push.

I would raise to $1 preflop, BTN would min-3-bet (which means AA/KK).
On the flop I would check/raise and get it all in on the turn.

Pre-flop raise to $1 (4BB's + 1BB per limper)

Flop is decent but should bet a bit more like 2.25 which IMO should be ~ your standard c-bet here.

Bet more on turn....at least 6.5 but with 2 opponents in hand more is better.

Why exactly are you betting 1/5th the pot on the river? Instead bet everything you have left ($16 into the $22 pot.).

The 5 on the river was definitely a scare card, its possible but unlikely that someone hit the straight on me. It also occured to me that someone mightve been slowplaying trip 10s or kings.

So I guess shove on river wouldve been best play? [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Ummm... yes and it woulda been more likely to be called too if your earlier bets were bigger also.

What straight draw hit? 42? 74? Slow played TT/KK? .....Ok happens sometimes...but monsters under the bed, my friend, monsters under the bed. You want to be all-in.

Bet more on every street.

Sets are good.:)

Re: flopped middle set against 2 players, did I get max. value?
 

bet more on every single street

The 5 on the river is not a scare card here, very unlikely it helped anyone. Go all in and take them to value town.
