middle set- fairly dry board- get it in or slowplay?

[spamalot]

I instapushed but in hindsight am I maximizing value by doing this? Or should I call and get it in on the turn?

Raise preflop because you have a strong hand and some limper that is probably [censored].

As played your line is insanely strong. I would put you on a set of twos, but these guys dont read hands and you dont want a bunch of guys seeing this turn so just throw the money in there.

see that was my initial thought was just to ram it in. But what am i afraid of on the turn? An Ace or king for a bigger set, a queen for JT, and a 5 for 67. But that is only worst case. Am I better to smooth call and try to get SB and/or MP1's money too?

[gimmetheloot]

I call and install.

Cheers.

preflop is bad. i'd probably play it as you did but calling isn't bad.

as played I call the flop, I'm not really afraid of any turn cards and I want to stack MP1 and SB hopefully stacking the lot...

With 1 limper I raise everything I play preflop...
