Ok, so I screwed up on the river here, it's pretty clear I'm beat at that point. "SB" is making it obvious he's on a draw. When MP1 calls my bet on the turn it's pretty clear he must have a set. Is there a better way to play the turn to avoid losing that extra $20 ?
I hate paying off sets with overpairs, it feels like a leak. I make my money from hitting sets and cracking overpairs, I don't want to just give it back when the roles are reversed.
