Never fold a set...

[nevereverwin]

Beat?? vs. 37/14 i am rearly consider I am beat here.. I am beting flop with 2/3 PSB bcoz of FD and 37/14 can heve str8draw too and I am willing to go broke with my hand if he raises my turnbet.. But as played (not beting flop) I probably call him down too.. I never fold that vs. him.

i think it's well played... i'd think about the river, ugh... but well played

How do you propose controling the pot? After the initial bet on the turn villain is in control of the pot, you could just check the turn but after a flop check around this is likely to keep the pot very small, and with no indication of strength from your opponents you want to start building the pot, personaly if I was in that hand I'd welcome every bet villain made with open arms.

Ah, I thought you meant he should check the turn, in that case I agree fully, he played it right.

Actually 37/14 makes a hand like A3 more likely.

But the 6 aggression factor means essentially you're never ever ever folding a set here. Once Villain shows agression I don't think going to calldown mode is so bad, though, unless you know specifically that she often raises the turn with something like 33 here.

I really don't see how you can find a fold here ever. i am felting this so quickly. What about something like QQ? i know he took a horrible line for it but its definitley possible.

Raise PF, lead river.

Take a break from poker if you're really thinking about finding a fold here.

Please, please let's not devolve into another limp vs. raise pre with pockets thread.

OP, search the archives. They abound with this type discussion.

I am stunned at the responses this thread has gotten. Urb, bad beat, raise pre, that's all! Now keep killing the games!

I'm not trying to start an argument with you epdaws. I just wanted to learn from your perspective
