NL100 | Set OOP in Raised Pot

[Grunch]

There's been a couple posts today about how best to play a set against an unknown. Here's my line, but I could have bet a little more on the flop and therefore the turn:

I've been kicking myself lately for not making draws pay me on the turn bet. I think that's where i lose most value in these hands.

I dont mind the flop bet size with 2 ppl to follow you. The turn though with 1 left i'd put in $25-$39 with a final push on the river.

i rele like it... he looks like calling station could even have straight here which instacalls, maybe a8 (instacalls) i love this play very good for getting value; if u think this riv hit him c/rai to also get value from bluffs obv straight and any 8 bets here and tougher to get away from them... vnh tho

I think this is fine, he isnt folding any 8 or the straight. If he only had a 7 for the draw or a midpair/straightdraw like 77 or 76 etc then he probably isnt calling a smaller bet on the river so you may as well stack him when he does have a good enough hand.
