This looks really like a set of threes with the limp/call preflop, but with like $15 more to call I also can't fold here. I call and make a note how he plays his small pairs/set.

I probably just check behind on the turn against this dude. Don't know what we're beating now, but it's hard to fold getting odds like that.

Man, these situations always make me sick. This one is the worst too because we can't even rationalize with "he is overplaying his draw", because there are no flippin' draws [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Bah - hit post too quick....

So we are looking at paying ~$14 for ~$51...so we are almost getting 4:1. Do we see a bluff or TPTK here 20-25% of the time?

Also, what do we think about checking the turn? There really aren't any draws out there, but I hate to give someone a free card to pair his kicker or show weakness here because we really won't know where we are if he bets. Man...this kind of bites...

I usually check behind on this turn on this board, call a reasonable river bet.

As played I would say fold, but I really think your committed to calling giving pot / stack sizes.

[x] Hero has passed the point of no return when he bets turn.
[ ] Hero's bet sizing sucks

I have a separate question. You think that we are looking at a set of 3's. If this guy raises 8% preflop...do we think he would raise TT or 88 here preflop?

I know that in response to OT's post TT or 88 or 33 is irrelevant - however, I am trying to work on my preflop reads and am having a hard time determining what PF raise %'s correlate to what hand range. Obviously I know that the guy with a 1% PF raise over a 1000 hand sample is only raising with AA...but I get thrown off as the %'s get higher...
