Re: 88 OTB
 

I probably limp for set value, and the other guy probabl doesn't have a king, but I like checking down just because you don't get a king to fold and this guy is playing really weak so I don't think he has something like 6/5 A to justify calling.

If you're going to raise preflop, raise a bit more.
If you're going to bet the flop, bet it like you have AK or AA.

I am raising to isolate here, and probably just trying to pick the blinds up, and build a pot if hit my set. I like to control the action, and a PFR lets me do that.
