i was fortunate (and unfortunate) enough this session to encounter this situation 2 times.
assume avg. 30/60 player 22/12/2
i raise UTG w/ TT/JJ villian (above) 3 bets
flop comes overcard non ace. iether K or Q with my set card and an undercard that does not make a straight.
i like betting here b/c i can 3 bet the flop and tie the guy onto the pot. but if i bet and he has something like 99/88 im getting 0 bets outta him...whereas if i check, and raise, he will definately put 1 bet in there in case I have something like TT on a KJ5 flop. of course i make more if he has a k by betting and 3 beting
but i was thinking, and i couldn't get my mind around the possibilities/pr's here that there should be a way to tell rather than pure luck, when is best to do what...
so given there's a card out there above your set, if he has it, you'll get action, if not he'll fold to a bet.
if he has none of that card, then you get no action but 1 bet if you c'r, or even slow play till the turn.
SOOOO.....the point of the post is:
id like to hear experienced players' thoughts on this at 30/60 and above. AS WELL AS any other considerations.
thanks
