I'm 50/50 with whether I prefer a v-bet or check behind. On the one hand you could get a donk looking you up with 2 pair or something. On the other hand, a v-bet with a set could get raised and you'll be wishing you c/c behind or something.

Assuming you're playing villains who know what they're doing, you're only getting called by the low straight. Anything else, IMO, the nuts is obviously potting it and anything else is folded (unless, like I said, you've got a spew monkey looking you up).

Yeah, I definitely don't mind the c/c approach and I'm wondering if this question was a little results oriented. 4 handed it is likely that someone has the straight. I guess you were unlucky in that no one actually did have it and a v-bet was probably right.

All the above applies assuming you actually did win the hand with your top set.
