Re: Should one keep betting?
I disagree. Yes, you will sometimes lose to a set, but quite a bit more often, you'll be called by a worse hand.
If the good player is especially tight, you have to consider the set possibility, but if you live in fear of TPTK losing to a set, you need to move down the limits until you reach the point where you are comfortable with your bankroll. TPTK (assuming the TP is relatively high) is a good hand in NL as well as in limit, and you're giving up a LOT of value if you're afraid to bet it. And if your TPTK is something like A8s, you ought to fear free cards quite a bit more than you fear sets.
