Re: Defending a Good Flop

Okay, you're sitting on a mid pair that catches a set on the flop. There are 2 or 3 players in, but there are two cards to a straight or flush draw on the board. You want to max your payoff, but are vulnerable to being outdrawn. I know there are a lot of details left out like position, preflop action, etc. but is there a general strategy out here...

If you can fold a set you could always try to keep the pot small or just check hoping for the flush card that pairs the board to come... I would bet the pot or overbet the pot on the flop and see where it goes from there.

advocating checking and hoping the turn bricks is a terrible idea. you want to build a bot w/a set. they are less likely to put $ in on the turn than flop, unless they have hit.
