Default 2-5 flopped top set and don\'t feel so good....

BB seems decent but i don't have much of a read. Button seems bad...

9-handed 2-5, 3 players limp, i limp from cutoff with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], button ($450) lims, sb limps, and BB ($1500) limps ....I cover all

Flop (7 players / $35) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

blinds check, utg bets $30, fold, fold, i raise to $140, button calls, sb folds, BB raises to $400, utg folds, i call (i'm certain button will call here), button calls.

Turn (3 players / $1265) A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img])


BB checks, i check (i'm sure button will go all in), button is allin for $45, BB calls, i call

River (3 players / $1400) Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img])

BB checks, Hero?


I definitely thought BB flopped a straight but when he checked the turn and river i was totally confused. I'm almost positve that button has a straight.

Bet whatever amount BB will call with his set of 4s/2s.

I also think that you are ahead of bb often enough here to make a thin value bet.

Thin value bet is fine if you are sure Button has 3x. Might as well get some of it back. Just curious, you thought BB flopped a straight, at what point did you come to this conclusion? Hopefully you're not calling knowing you're behind on the flop.

If BB calls i'm getting close to 4-1 on the call and may have some implied odds...Why not?

yea yea, that's what i thought....So i bet $600 on the river and BB called with A3....Button also had A3...I'm not sure if villian would have paid off with bottom set here but i assume he would have. Probably a results oriented post but some donkey tried to tell me how bad of a river bet that was and made me question myself....

Edited to add: The river bet was probably a little much as it would have REALLY sucked if BB shoved. $400 - $500 would have probably been better (i'm not really too scared of getting bluff raised by this guy)
