That was such a retarded card I didn't think I could beat anything and I obv couldn't call 1/3 of what I had left for a fullhouse draw... But it's friday night and they could just be drunk and dumb and have floated for a pot-sized bet on the flop with QJ or have Q8 or something.

no way i fold there u played it so slow showin no agression he had to think his top pair of queens were good he could have any q there or 2 pair at best. Maybe the flush rarely but u got redraws if u happen to run into that i think u were ahead

Re: So I just folded a set in a turbo
 

any reads on dragon? if he hit his flush, most of the time wouldnt he be checking behind?

Re: So I just folded a set in a turbo
 

Sah, what Q is he floating the flop for a pot sized bet with?

gibler, no read. Why would he check behind a flush when he needs 2 streets of value to stack me? Also, he would bet a straight and any flush that wasn't the nut flush because of the river diamond possibility.

I'd never fold a set here.
I would not check the turn but shove all-in.
you might be up against the flush but there are so many more possibilities.

I guessed from the title you'd probably have made a mistake; after looking at the hand I'm sure it was awful.

I expected like half the posts to be low content and include no ranges like this one; I guess I'm lucky it's just one.

Re: So I just folded a set in a turbo
 

The turn is a terrible card. However, since your bet on the flop could easily be interpeted as a continuation bet;which followed by the check on the turn could easily induce a bet, especially if your opponent picked up top pair, by any two cards. The strongest hand that I think your opponent could bet this much here is a straight with no daimond. What makes the stituation even worse is that this is a turbo and you dont have alot of time to accumlate chips which makes passing up stituations like these impossible. Really I think you played the had very well till the fold. You should have just shoved over the top; even if he has you beat minus a set of queens you got outs.

You don't need ranges/reads/anything really to tell this is a horrid fold. You should expect half the posts to be low content if you fold sets here

Re: So I just folded a set in a turbo
 

Pot offering t450, you've t1210 behind.

Think your turn check is ok, but you have to shove turn here, because AQ/KQ are possible here. And your pf/flop looks standardish even for stuff that missed, like AK. Once you check turn, he can bet it with AQ/KQ one diamond hands and feel he can take the pot away a decent % of the time.

Shove turn.
