Default Bottom set, what to do?

Villain seems to play solid preflop and I haven't seem him do crazy things. I know that my flop raise is a bit small, that was not intentional.

How would you continue on the flop? I pushed all-in since I can't fold sets, but was it the right thing to do given the deep stacks?

I think this is fine. He could be doing this with overpairs, 2 pairs and big draws.

I think this is fine unless you have a very good read that he doesn't do anything stupid post flop. This could well be an overpair/2pr

I think this for sure +EV, the he will flip over 56 here often but you have redraws there, and I think this is overpair/FD many times as well.

Set vs set is variance. This should be put in sticky or something [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Fine, but you'd better PSR on the flop.
