Unfortunately, the opponent showed me a set of duces, and MHING.

I misplayed this hand. What was my error?

Before I read the outcome, my impression was that Villian showed no fear of the Ace that flopped, indicating that Villian either had an Ace, or called the PF bet with a pair and flopped the set.

Of course, Villian could be bluffing the flop under the assumption that hero didn't have ace. Not knowing Villian, I would discount this possibility.

I agree w/ the following post. You hate to play hands that, even if you hit the flop, get you in trouble.

Let's say Villian didn't flop the set. He probably would've folded to your flop bet. So your upside is that you win a small pot; downside, you lose your stack. Not my kind of deal.

For this very reason, I fold all no pair hands other than AK UTG and UTG+1 when I have just sat at a full table. Once in this situation without reads I fold though. He wants to play a big pot, you don't and you're in no spot to control the pot size. Hope 100nl is treating you well
