Re: Early in WSOP Event #25 - Best line with a set?

I kinda hate your underbet on the flop. Think about the hands that you believe would call your 200 chip bet (KQ/KJ/97/99-QQ...) they are all calling for 350 too and, if anything, 350 looks slightly weaker than 200.

On the flop, my thinking was that he would sense my bet as weak and come over the top based on him possibly observing my previous hands. We're too deep for him to shove obviously, but if he raises and I call, he could put me on 99-QQ and try to push me off those hands on the turn.
Also, wouldn't he drop most pairs and weak kings if I bet the turn? My check was designed to make him think he was ahead in the hand.
I like what you are saying about getting more chips in there so I can build the pot and commit him later. If he's calling 200, he'll call more on the flop. But if I keep that strength up on the turn, he might dump a lot of hands that might keep paying me off.
