Re: Top set
I bet 300 on the flop and took the pot. I thought it would look like a weak attempt to steal the pot in last position. I would probably make some stab at the pot with this flop and action no matter what I had. I am more used to lower buyin where people would call half pot with overcards and I was trying to build the pot.
Problem is it was unlikely that anyone had a ten since I had two and there were not many possible draws. I probably should have checked and hoped for a broadway card. Preflop I didn't want to raise because I have a difficult decision if UTG or one of 7 players yet to act decides to reraise. By limping I have chances for a set or overpair. Plus I may get position in a 4-way pot, as occurred. If someone raises, I have the option to fold, call, or push. It is kind of a matter of style and some people may prefer to raise here. |
Re: Top set
I bet every time just like I bet all the times before.

Re: Top set
If it was a raised pot or the blinds weren't in it, I would consider checking. But with both blinds in, there are quite a few cards that could make a straight for somebody. I'd bet 300-400 and hope it looks like a position bet/steal to someone.

Re: Top set
I bet because my hand is good.
And because when I have good hands, I want people to put money in the pot. Its fun to get CR when you have top set. -Jason |
Re: Top set
as a rule, I never slowplay more than 3 players b/c of obvious suckout reasons. In this situation where the tourney is still not too deep I'd probably bet it out right a little under half the pot to encourage action

Re: Top set
With 3 opps, i'm betting about 2/3rds of the pot, sometimes more (depending on my read of the players involved in the pot). Any less, or slow playing, esp in the early stages of a tournament, could give someone a chance to catch a big hand or a big draw and take all your chips.
