I fold.

There is already 3 people AI before you so I don't expect my set to be good. Someone must have the straight and someone might have a higher set. Also, there is no flush draw out there so you can't put one opf these guys on that.

I would have pushed after the first bet though, but given the action, you should fold.

Wow, I guess if there's ever a time on a non-flush board to fold a set, that's it. Even if no-one has a higher set, you're still in pretty terrible shape vs. the other likely hands. If we give one of them a straight, another top two pair, and a third just A8 for the draw, you're still only about 10% to win this hand. And I'd say that's pretty much a best case scenario. It hurts, but I think you have to dump this.

As the others said though, I push this after the first bet, and then proceed to puke as the rest of the table falls over themselves to get their chips in the middle.
