Is this an easy push?

Are we concerned about a bigger set?

I can rule out folding and calling as appropriate actions here.

That leaves one option.

standard push! You have a set!!! if you lose to a bigger that is poker varanice.

I would have raised from after the small blind bet.
He could have two pair or anything... Get the mon ey in the pot!!!!

Agreed on raising the SB bet on the flop - probably raising it $3 or $4.

If you lose to another set, then hey, it sucks, but then why else play 5/5 if you're looking to get your money all in when you have the nuts and you're almost assured not to have the nuts on the flop.

OK, so am I correct in assuming that we should never concern ourselves with the possibilty of being dominated by a bigger set when either pushing or calling a shove on the flop, regardless of any previous reads/stats on a player?



Result to follow......

Um, no.

If you're very deep stacked or have a supremo read it is something to be concerned with. But generally, in a multi-way pot against unknowns and only 150bbs deep, you want as much money in the middle as possible.

well the outcome

Hero pushes all in, both call

MP2 has JJ set of J's

SB mucks 10 J 2 pr

Thanks to all those who commented and good point raised about my lack of raise on the flop!

never fold a set on the flop unless your opponent is wearing a set mining hat, and his set mining canarie bird has died
