NL20, hit top set, how to extract?

[Ramana]

SB wont fold 2p+ to a raise, but will fold a KJ QJ kind of hand, BB probably had atc. Should I have raised less?

that's a big raise on a semi-dry board. I probably make it 5 to go.

[Ramana]

But if they call 5, wont they also call 7?

[Spurious]

No...
Make it 5 to go and OESD will call you more likely.

[mvdgaag]

You could call, not to take their action away. A PSB on the turn is $7 and he will very likely bet at least that same $5 for you. I'm willing to risk giving a free card to make BB feel committed (he needs to see the $7 pot firt) and get SB to bet for me.

BB is short so I'd ignore him and play it like I'm HU with SB. I would mix up smooth calling, min-raising [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] and raising to $5ish. Since he donks into hero as the pre-flop raiser, I'd probably be inclined to raise him to $5. That makes getting it AI by the river easier.

How decent is SB? Is he good enough to try to isolate the short stack with any piece of the board?

SB is a decent player, he runs 11.5/4/1. Maybe that's the reason why I bet so big. He usually doesn't donk, he knows I can play. He folds SB and BB 97% and 94%. So he MUST have a hand there. Unfortunately he made an exception there and probably bet AJ-QJ, maybe KQs.

But you're all right, I bet waay to much there. Obv mistake. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
