lay it down. without reads? lay it down. i've come into HUGE problems with this. you shoulda just called. i see any str8 checking this flop and any set checking this flop. you're way behind.

i didn't see bad lag and 6 handed. out of my scope, i'm full ring player. ignore this 1st post.

Gross.

You really got to have a read here on how he plays draws and made hands.

I'm tempted to fold, but I think only you really know the answer here based on how bad and how lag he is.

Re: 200NL deepstacks, how do I play this set?
 

hard to say. He could just have easily hit 2 pair or have a pair with a great draw.

In the end, if you like your money, lay down the hand. You may have had the better hand, but you're still up big.

call turn

lay it down.

limped pot... easy fold.

Re: 200NL deepstacks, how do I play this set?
 

i find this to be a very very easy fold. (unless he has been pushing his stack around a lot)

Re: 200NL deepstacks, how do I play this set?
 

I hate the 3 bet. theres not enough 2nd best hands calling u down an you throw up when he four bets. call his raise an let him bluff the river. sets are big hands but this deep on a board like this given the action so far you have a bluff catcher an not much else.

Thanks for the responses.

I actually layed down the hand and he showed QT.
