Default Hit bottom set... am I good here?

3-way pot, with 2 villains, one deep, one average stacked.

Deep stacked villain in the CO is 22/13/4 in 300+ hands
Average stacked villain in the BB is 46/11/2 in 100 + hands

Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players

UTG: $49.15
Hero (MP): $71.90
CO: $145.10
BTN: $52.25
SB: $76.95
BB: $48.35

Pre-Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (MP)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.75</font>, CO calls $1.75, 2 folds, BB calls $1.25

Flop: ($5.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks, <font color="red">CO bets $4</font>, BB calls $4, <font color="red">Hero raises to $14</font>, CO calls $10, <font color="red">BB raises to $26</font>,

Hero??[/i]

Here I have third set, but look at the board. There is a straight possibility as well as oversets that could beat me. You also have 2 players that are willing to play for significant bets on a non-broadway, non-flush board.

More importantly, look at the line the BB took on the flop. Check/Call/Raise?? How is this not a monster? And he has an AF of 2. Add in the deep stack whose hanging around, but with his raise/check/call line I think he's ready to fold.

What do you do here?

Can easily be JT, KQ. CO looks really weak, like AT. You should have led the flop. I think you are behind here rarely.

One thing to add here, The CO had an aggression factor of 4 but his Flop aggression factor was a 7. Also, he was pouncing on any post flop weakness every chance he had. I figured he'd put in a bet and he did.

I do agree that I normally need to lead that flop, but in this case it really was a special circumstance and wanted to break this guy of betting every hand since he was directly to my left.

shove here, I think you might see 2 pair from BB and TP or a draw (OE) from CO.

If they do have 78 then you have a decent amount of outs

Shove it and love it.

Lead the flop.

If you are going to worry about set over set when you get resistance then you should stop playing small pp's

I'm very surprised that no one cares about the check/call/raise line in the face of aggression from the BB. How often do you see this? To me it screams STRENGTH!!! Especially 3-way when each of the other 2 players have raised on this street already.

That being said, I ignored my instinct, and said if I lose so be it, and I shoved. The CO folded like I expected and the BB called and turned over 10 10 for top set.

Turn was a 9, to give both of us a boat, and the river was a 10 to give him quads, even though it didn't matter.

I'm not surprised by all the votes for shoving, but am very surprised that no one expressed any reservations on this.

Average stacked villain in the BB is 46/11/2 in 100 + hands

and youre saying his line is always a hand you beat? ok sure, fold it and mutter when the muppet does it with AT, T9, T6, KT....

Just one of those hands where you destined to put the money in and hope for the best. No folding here, sorry. BB does have a good, made hand here -- we don't know what it is, but we're way ahead of a lot of 2pr hands, way behind sets, and have outs against the straight. Considering how much is in there, we have to go with it. Push here.

(note: I ran this kinda fast and might've missed some very logical stuff)

Board: 6s 9h Tc
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 35.282% 35.22% 00.06% 235997 402.33 { 6c6d }
Hand 1: 30.750% 29.08% 01.67% 194864 11168.33 { QJs, T9s, 87s, QJo }
Hand 2: 33.968% 32.30% 01.67% 216426 11168.33 { JJ-99, T9s, T6s, 96s, 87s, T9o, 87o }


JJ is only in BB's range to represent all the overpairs that BB might have slowplayed pf, JJ-AA.

You'll see that this is a rather pessimistic view, and it's still a push. You're 50% against BB's range if CO drops out btw; I stoved it.

Oh, and lead flop. CO raising would be sweet anyway, and c/r just lets him off easy with his aggression.
