Default Re: How did I play this NLHE hand pocket 33

I suggest pushing in on the flop to his miniraise. You may very well have the best hand here and if you don't you will finish with the best hand 1 out of 3 times, unless he has a higher set. Also, if you are ahead, you make him call his whole stack as a big dog with a draw.

Once you misplay (IMO) the flop, you have to decide if he has you beat on the turn. If he does have you beat on the turn and you call, you are losing money as you are well short on odds to fill up. If he doesn't have you beat and you fold - you are losing money by folding the best hand. Difficult decision, but I would curse and call here with a set in a soft game (Party Poker). There are many hands you could beat - AA, KK with the flush draw. Naked flush draw semibluff.
