Default Re: Bottom set

you don't want the button in the hand on a JTx board, especially when he called one bet with 2 players behind him. either he's slowplaying top 2 or he has a draw. plus callers like to call. give them more bets to call. you don't need to play so fancy. fast play wins more money

as for the limp, in any 5-handed game any time it is almost (99.99999999%) right to open limp UTG. you pretty much need a 5-way pot to make 22 playable. you are in a 5-handed game. more often than not you get yourself isolated and end up getting outplayed because your pair of twos might be good
