Re: % for set over set?
The odds of flopping a set are about 8-1. My math absolutely sucks, but I will take a wild guess and say that the odds of two people flopping one is 20-1? My math may be(and probably is) flawed. Even if it's close, it's so rare that you should never fold a set on a ragged board. If you have some read, suck as a player ONLY raising aces and kings preflop, and he raises and the board come AK6 giving you a set of 6s and he raises your bet, yeah fold. But it better be a really good read.
Just like Harrington said "I'm not good enough to fold Kings preflop, and neither are you." You should use that same train of thinking about sets. Except be cautious on coordinated boards.
