3 of a kind, my biggest leak

[nudz]

How deep do i need to be to really be able to fold a set,
one of the resons i seem to lose alot with sets, is coz i seen way over my share of set over set in the 17k hands i played this month after getting PT.

But i post some of my losers and I want to know if it would really be ev+ to fold a set in these spots.
If im 100BB or less im always never folding set, but its been occasion where we have been playing closer to 150-200BB. Im playing 100nl, my image is always lag.

Here I almost folded coz of the bad "acting", but this player have been playing pretty donkish, and could easy be overplaying a overpair, two pair etc etc.

Im gonna be posting alot of hands, as im trying to get pretty serious about my poker.
Thats all for now, nudz.

Don't fold a set ever until you're like 500 bb deep. People play so bad and overplay so many hands/draws that it'd be really bad to throw a set away.

[als33]

set under set means you are going to go broke. sorry, that's just how it is.

that said, you need to stop making these glorified minraises.

Hey! I relize that I might just been unlucky, and this is only a realativ small sampel of hands, but in the last 17k hands i played I only manage to profit 40$ on 3 of a kind.

[wrschultz]

When playing 9 handed games, you can definitely fold sets sometimes. That being said, at $100nl, you should never fold a set...

ummm incorrect, just don't fold sets k? or at least play loose enough where ppl aren't going to call you with only a set

[Isura]

Surely you don't know what your biggest leak is. It certainly isn't hands like this. Folding either hand here is ghastly.
Also, raise more on flop in hand 1
