fdwarrior, I check/call here. Hope he value-bets QQ (lol). I can't really get rid of a set. We are nearly placing our hand face-up, but that is the price of this river.

I c/c here and expect to see the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] quite frequently.

[DavidSRT]

I would c/c here I can't release the set for one more BB in that pot.

Unfortunately he likely was in there with something like AK or AQ of course containing the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Tough spot.

[Second Toughest]

Agee with everone else c/c river. Better return than bet/ folding.

Being the pedant I am though, I'd have preferred to have seen a flop lead.

[CrMenace]

My initial reaction was to slow down on the turn. Hero has shown villain some real aggression on the flop and was raised on the turn anyway.

Is this bad?

[ckj]

I don't slow down, the combination of the times I'm ahead plus the likely-hood of me improving makes this a longterm +ev play in my opinion.

I do check/call the river.

[neurotiq]

I'd play it the same way and c/c the river. Nice hand. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I hate this hand. I would have lead out on the flop to check called the river but this hand never has a happy ending for me.
