100nl: 77 makes set on dangerous board

[Exar_Kun]

Villain is unknown, I should be out on turn here shouldn't I?

Villain is shortstack so I thought I could let another card full and then I would be more likely to get his stack, but looking back this is stupid on this drawy board.

river call is really really bad, I think your almost never good here. I would also bet the turn to get some info, get value from draws.. Still alot of hands u beat on the turn.

[Exar_Kun]

I thought as much. I took a long time to make the call and the only reason I called was because of my under-repped hand.

I definitely think that betting out the turn is the best option here.

bet turn, fold river.

[GoldenIP]

I would bet a fraction more on the flop and definitely the turn. As played - always hard to lay down a set but gotta be done here although I can't seem to figure out how the villain got to the river with the straight..I guess the obvious and sole hand is KQ

[Exar_Kun]

KQ of course.

id rather b/f turn and check behind river after he expects you to bet again. if he bets im folding.

[mrjetguy]

no way I'm calling the river, you just aren't beating him often enough to call.

This is a bad line of thinking.

It DOESN'T MATTER that your hand is underreped, because villain will never pot that river for value with a worse hand than 777.

You only beat a pure bluff.
