NL 5/10...Folding Set And It\'s Not Close
 

Doing this from memory. Good online full NL 5/10. 2 donks reallly spewing chips. Villian seems solid, (18/6/3) probably views me similarly. I have 2300. villain has 4k.

On to hand. Donk limps in (Got half in with slick earlier, nothing on flop, got other half in to double my AA). Villian limps. I limp on button with 33.

Flop is 3 6 9 rainbow. Donk bets 100 (This could be anything, probably overcards). Villian Calls. I raise to 300 (I want to get donk HU, if he's got a set, Ill pay him, but i can probably take his 1k).

Anyway, Donk folds. Villian raises up to, like 3k. I, of course muck. I'm positive he hit set.

It looks like he put me on set and figured I'd pay off his higher set. With that monster bet? Does anyone else play a set this way ever? In his shoes, against an opponent on the tight side at a full table. I'll call the raise, then check raise the turn.

I learned little from OPs post, and less from yours.

Fold looks good.

Sorry to waste your time. It seems clear I had to fold. The bigger question in my mind has to do with solid opponents odd play. He c/r the flop a ton.

In his shoes, putting your opponent on lower set (when you have top set), do you ever pull that against a tightish opponent. If so, its a good way to get 200bb stack in OOP.

If he had a bigger set his raise was terrible.

Unless he thinks his opponent (the OP) will call with a smaller set. But yeah, he's better off milking his opponent.

i think it was a bad fold, if he hit a higher set there is really nothing you can do but pay him off, he might be making a play or have an over pair. i think your best move is to put it in the middle.
