Re: .5/1 My set is crushed here, right?
a c/r that plays out like this on that flop in a multiway pot beats bottom set enough times here for me to be ok with a fold and get off cheap from a VERY sticky situation. sets are great and all, but their strength is all relative.
if it's a draw, how many 'safe' cards are going to come? the 15 big scares will come (diamond/3/8) ~30% of the time on the turn, and even if a blank like a Ks comes and he leads for half his stack, you still have no idea where you are. if the board pairs 5 or 6, you have the worst fh possible and get stacked if he had any 2pair or set. and not to mention you still have the original raiser behind you to act.
bottom line: BET THE [censored] FLOP!! slowplaying by going for a c/r on this board makes me want to puke
