This board isnt particularly drawy, it does look like he has a set though, but you have too much showdown value to fold, especially as at those limits you're going to get the same situation against AK AQ A7 etc against a lot of the bad players.

Looks pretty good to me.
You're ahead of BB about half the time on the turn, so if you can get MP2 to call 2 bets occasionally, the raise is definitely worth it. The 3-bet suggests a set, but clearly folding would be a mistake.

[ QUOTE ]
I'd call down from the turn. That check-3bet on the flop followed with a bet on the turn after you cap doesn't look very good for you. [/ QUOTE ] If we just call we are offering the player to our left ~11:1. This gives him odds to call to a lot of hands with at least 4 outs. Are you thinking that MP has at best 4 outs a majority of the time here due to his flop play?

Protecting your hand when you're behind isn't usually a wise strategy.
