I'd hate to do it, but I fold. This looks like a set here. I really can't see CO doing this with any pair given that you raised preflop, especially UTG.

[Klopzi]

Hero? Folds.

Without reads on the CO, that bets way too big to call with TPTK, unless you've seen him make this same move with air. The draw on the board makes calling here a little more bearable, but ultimately I think you're best folding without a rock solid read on your opponent.

Folding TPTK sucks - that's why so many people get stacked in this same situation.

Just took a look at the results: CO showing a set is pretty standard here, I think. Too bad for you - you'll get him next time.

At 25NL i'm calling this most of the time. It is somewhat read dependent. Embrace the variance.

LAG you say? I'm not reading he results yet. This Im calling. You've got TPTK, A diamonds redraw. If he has a set so be it.

[losingdonkey]

CO showing a set is not standard here. You'll often see QK, QJ, Q10, 45, flush draws ect...

you guys are being too results oriented

I'd say it depends on OP's table image at that point in time. If I've seen CO make this type of move on a draw or sub-standard holding and if I'm not getting respect at the table, then I might make this call.

[losingdonkey]

I agree, it would be nice to have a read and some stats on this guy, but without them I'm calling.
