call or fold this set on the river?
 

Sorry, I don't have the hand history available.

50NL, Party, 9-handed

I have $70 and villain has $60. I've only had one orbit around the table. Villain hasn't done anything out of the ordinary.

Preflop: Villain (UTG) raises to $2.00. Folded to me. I call in MP with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Everyone else folds.

Flop ($4.75): A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Villain bets $2.00. I called. I know I'm way behind if he has an ace or a king, but I wanted to play position here. His bet seemed weak. I thought I could steal the pot on the turn (depending on what he did). If he came out firing on the turn I was done with this hand.

Turn ($8.75): A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Cool! I hit my set. Villain now bets $8.00. I raise to $16.00. Villain calls.

River($40.75): A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Villain bets $40 (all-in). Hero...?

Seems like an AK from my view. Dont know why he wouldnt reraise you on the turn though. I definetely call this one, i think he has AK alot more often than AA/KK.

Think it's closer than this... but if it could be AK 1 in 3 times you have to call.

His PSB on the turn suggests he has something that he likes, so raise more. Get it all in on the river. If he has AA/KK, so be it.

Re: call or fold this set on the river?
 

I like a bigger raise on the turn. If he has something, he's more likely to call a biggish river bet if the pot is bigger, and it gets more money in when we're ahead on the turn. I think the river is a call.

Results.
 

Uggh, it seems so obvious now. I put him on AK, AA, or KK (like everyone else). The way villain played it, I thought he was slow-playing a set (no draws on the board). I realize I played the turn a little weak, but my gut was telling me he had a set. I folded the river and he showed AK (two pair). My hand would've been good. I normally would call the river, but with both the ace and king on the flop, I decided to be weak-tight and put him on a set.

The hand bothered me for a while, but I ended up having a good session.

Thanks everyone.

Call... I don't see what you're worried about here.

Re: call or fold this set on the river?
 

From the way he was betting it seems he made his hand on the flop. So I suspect AQ-AA. Call crossing your fingers that he does not have KK or AA.

I think I would have folded to the flop bet.

I love how you called the flop bet, hit your 2 outer and then folded.
