Default Re: Over pair vs. flopped set

Slow down if they call a big bet on a drawless board. Most players are generally not going to push back too hard if they hold an overpair, and if they have a set they will often let you get to showdown more cheaply than you would by pushing the action. If you're playing very LAG, there's not a whole lot you can do to keep from losing your stack, you make it back all the times that they set farm against you when you don't have aces. TAGs on the other hand are constantly trading money back and forth with set to overpair, overpair to set. The winning TAG gives his stack away the least when he has the overpair, and takes the other TAGs stack the most when he has the set.
