flopped a set early in the small blind - getting some action
live mtt - $150 buyin
stacks - hero 8500, villain 7000 (starting stack was 7500) reads: villain is a solid but not exceptional player. He has been talking about always getting sucked out on by bad players. image: I have been fairly active so far. About 5 hands ago I showed a successful bluff to the table that won a medium size pot. blinds 50/100 preflop - dealt to hero 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2 limpers, hero calls, big blind checks flop (pot = 400) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] hero bets 400, BB raises to 1200, 2 folds, hero ?? I'm fairly confident that he either has a flush draw or two pair. I don't think he would do this with just a king I have two questions (obv I have my own thoughts about both): 1. What's my line now? 2. Do you play this any differently if it is a cash game? |

Re: flopped a set early in the small blind - getting some action
Details of the bluff you showed would be useful. I really want to shove here and if you've been active and showing bluffs, this seems like the best play.

Re: flopped a set early in the small blind - getting some action
bluff went as follows: I'm in the hijack with JJ. UTG+1 limps for 100. I raise to 400 and he calls. Flop comes A K 8. He bets 1000, I raise to 2500, he thinks for a couple of minutes and folds. I showed the jacks, and he mumbled something about putting me on a pair but not sure enough to call.

Also, you're 3:1 against a flush draw, so you don't want to just shove and blast him out of the hand. I still like the 3k raise, because given your image he will think he has FE on a push. Same with 2 pair, he probably fears a flush draw and you sucking out, so he's gonna shove over your 3-bet. Given what he think of you I question your read that he wouldn't raise just a K on this board...hell I think he may stack off with one. |

id call. lead turn if no club comes c/call if it does. my turn bet would be a 2/3 pot bet.this gives him poor odds to call. if he has 2 pair great hell shove and he has 4 outs to win

2nd alternative is to repop to 3500 i would not shove and blow him out of the pot
