Reasonable set play?

[PinkSteel]

This is pretty boring, but it was my biggest pot of the evening, so someone tell me if I'm just a blind squirrel who found a nut, or if I played it OK.

Very first hand at the table; no reads whatever.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Since he raised pf, I wanted to see if I was against an overset or charge him for a straight draw right from the start....

I might just smooth call the flop and put the raise in on the turn. I wouldn't be too worried about the queen. I don't think BB has AT, and while 9T has you beat, I don't think it's too likely, given the action.

As it stands, I don't like your raise on the turn. You've pot committed yourself. If you raise the flop and he bets small into you again, either call/push river or push turn. Unless a ten comes on the river you're not laying this down, are you?

[jkkkk]

your line seems fine to me, but if you really put him on an over set, you should just smooth call the turn and see what takes place on the river.

I wasn't really too worried about the queen either, but I figured there was some small chance that he had an overset, and I wanted to get the bad news early. So I figured I would raise immediately. Charging him for a potential draw was sort of secondary, but made sense at the time.

I wanted to get as much of my stack into the middle as I thought he would call, as early as I could, to get HIM pot committed -- so I could get the whole thing in by the river.

If he hit an out on the river to beat me, well, that would have really sucked, and you're right that by then I was pot committed -- I would have called just about anything except maybe a T. But I figured I likely had way the best of it, so I pushed it hard.
