I agree, I think Mr Albright (I thought he was outed, but never mind) didn't realise we have top set and we should try to go all in.

RT,

If you are maintaining that in 100% of cases, regardless of effective stack sizes, the number of opponents, the drawing possibilities of the flop and the sidecards to go with the top set pair, that one should seek to get allin on the flop, you are in error. And if you need it explained to you, then I would suggest reading or rereading Chen & Ankemann's book, which only touches on the math of the situations, and is aside from any considerations of balancing one's play.
