TT and a scary set.

[nothumb]

Been flopping a lot of sets in scary spots lately. Does anyone like leading the turn against an unkown here?

Having a lousy player calling along makes it clearer IMHO that a turn lead is the way to go, feeling like you'll probably get raised.

I would call down as well after the cap on the flop. Hope you won.

If I lead the turn, it's because I don't want to give a free card. If I get raised, I'll want to vomit.

Note that a raise from No Read does not protect your hand against a big club in Loose Caller's hand. He has the odds to call two cold, and it isnt close.

I would bet the turn. Not only are you giving any club a free chance to beat you, there are now lots of gut-shot possibilities out there also.

You don't want free cards coming off, you probably have the best hand, and if you don't you still have a good chance to draw out.

If No Reads checks it through I'd want to vomit more.

(Besides, getting raised in the spot is hardly the end of the world, especially if we can get Loose Caller to put in two bets also.)

If I'm near someone who vomits, I'll usually vomit too.
