Default Re: Top set Hand(lukewarm content)

PF - no raise is standard for me.
Flop - gotta cap
Turn - you know my view on sets, stealth bombs, gotta cap.
That cap would make river play a lot easier.

But we do need a moment here. What hands to we put SB on and what hands would SB put us on? What's your read on this play?

Let's put a book of tells line of thinking out there:

1) Does this guy tell the truth or lie? I think he tells the truth with his betting pattern.
2) Does he want the last bet from you or not? Do you see any signals that he is trying to cut you a break and you should back off, or does he like taking that last bet from people?
3) Liars play strong when weak and weak when strong, but I don't think this is your guy. Had you seen ANY prior deception on the part of your Villian?

After a turn cap if he still "bets dark" its just a call down. If he checks, same process as above, I don't think he is a c/r kind of guy but look for evidence of prior deception.

So I think there is a worthwhile discussion and introspection for you Tom on the use of tells to help you in this hand.
