Default PLO8 $50: Flopped bottom set on 2 high board

No reads except PAHUD numbers on Makabe. He seems SLAPish.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1047807

Pre-flop: Easy call on the button.

Flop: Player to my left shows strength after everyone else checks and I want to see how much he likes his hand. I raise enough so that nobody else will call and I have room to fold if I want.

Turn: His check suggests I am ahead, I don't see him slow-playing with higher sets now that the board is more dangerous, so I shove.

Should I fold the flop?

Should I simply call down to the river with bottom set?

Should I call and re-evaluate turn, and if so what cards do/don't I want to see?

Thanks

I think you played it fine. I guess you could argue against raising the flop with bottom set, but in this position I would do the same.

I also think this hand is a good example of how it can help to play with a full stack. If villain had had a deeper stack he could have raised the turn all-in while he was ahead instead of just calling your bet.
