I definitely don't hate games like this, but because of the "schooling" effect they aren't the easiest to play. The variance almost makes it a crap shoot. The only edge seems to...

Rest of the hand is standard.

Most of my raises were on big draws from late position on the flop. I was trying to accomplish 3 things.
1) Get the button to fold, which I could often do.

When are games too good?
I read an essay Mr. Malmuth wrote a while back about games that are too LP. When almost everyone sees the flop and 3 or more on average showdown you end up playing against too many hands drawing...

Re: Reasonable hourly rate?
I assume he means live. It's 2 big bets for great players not 4 (4 big blinds I guess). I'm pretty sure this essay is a few years old.

Re: Fold a Set for Just a Bet? Twice?
I figured I'd have to pay 4 bets to see the river. I was right. I guess I was wrong to fold with that in mind, yes?

Re: TPTK on paired flop
I did raise pf. There were 2 cold callers. The 1st was in BB (I think) or UTG, he's LP though and is likely to call most pf raises. The other was just to the right the MP tricky 3bet TAG.
