Default Re: NL 50+5 hand input appreciated

Blinds are 50/100 and there are 2 limpers of which you are one. So the pot has 150+100+100=350.

He leads out for 300, you have an overpair and missed your set. The pot is 350+300=650. Who knows what he has. Probably not a set, maybe an overpair or maybe weak ace giving him 33 66 or 77 with Ace kicker.

Pot 0650
Him 1482 (400 in)
You 4065 (100 in, yet to call 300)

In my view this is borderline and there are better spots. You missed the chance to raise preflop and set up a post-flop continuation in position.

Dont call off your money here now.

Either fold or make a decent type raise. Have a plan if he repops you and have a plan for the turn if he just calls.

You called the 300 flop. OK. Now the turn comes the A overcard and he bets again. He limped in, bet the flop and bet the overcard A turn. Admit it is over and get out. Preserve your substantial chipstack and look to engineer a better situation than this. This appears to be gambling at unfavorable odds.

Call me tight. I missed my chance preflop and now I am done in light of this scenario.
