Re: limit O8 - betting top two pair or a set on the turn (or not)

But some of those possible straights are fairly safe because the cards that complete these straights are not likely ones for the opponents to hold.Right?

Ben - Exactly!
And that's why it's often prudent to call a bet on the fourth betting round when you end up with top two pair or a set and somebody bets representing a made but unlikely straight on the river.
That's why when you bet the turn with a set, you're not only putting one bet in the pot, but you're committing yourself for another bet on the river when you miss quads or a full house.
