I shove the flop.

Looks like an easy flop push. Lots of draws he'll have to call with, and basically anything he's not calling a push here isn't going to fire another barrel on the turn.

On the turn it's an easy call. You're getting 2:1 that you're ahead, behind a higher set and drawing to the flush, or behind a flush and drawing to a boat. Even when you're behind you have lots of outs and villain could easily have AA or AK along with the hands that beat you.

No boobies, no advice.

You think with villain bets like that with AA or AK? Isn't he scared of KK or QQ? Also, do you think the preflop call is correct?

i'd fold preflop. not having done that I like flop call

You called $125 preflop to hit your set. You hit it, now just get your money in ASAP. I personally get it in on the flop, but this is fine as well. Sorry if he had AA-QQ.

I don't mind calling preflop cause another player is in the pot.

I wondered if I was right to call preflop as well. Implied odds with what we have behind seemed like it was close.

What odds and with how much behind can you justify a call with a low pocket pair?

With the heavy preflop action, followed by a heavy flop bet, isn't it somewhat likely that one of my opponents has QQ or KK?
