Bottom Set - 2nd hand facing an all-in
2nd hand of a $20/180. I normally won't play low pairs early, but in these tournaments it's pretty easy to get paid off. I hit bottom set..am I good here?

Also, play small pairs early in tournaments, possibly not in this spot, but against earlier raises, or in limped pots. |

Raise... oh wait you can't raise, i guess a call is OK then.
Crazy stuff happens on the 2nd hand of an online tournament on a draw heavy board. You are against a straight draw / flush draw / 2 pair / top pair very often here |

Alright, I know, I know....just needed a sanity check.
His check/push just didn't make sense with a higher set with that board in a 4-way pot. Maybe AKd or something like that, but still a goofy overbet. Alas...I called and he had TT |

Re: Bottom Set - 2nd hand facing an all-in
check raises scare me in the 20 180s.
nontheless you call here and you will win be ahead almost everytime. |
