Default Re: bottom set monotone board, alternative lines welcome (boring)

I don't play this high, but I think it is quite possible for one of those two to have a flush, isn't it? Unless you are pushing as a bluff. Maybe take the free card and try to fill up. Will both players call another 440 on that flop with anything that your 22 beat, especially the overcaller. There is only one As in the deck and it is a pretty marginal call with that.

Taking a free card gives others a chance to hit their flush and outdraw his bottom set. This is certainly not what we want.

The flop raise looks really good, enough so you are able to push a pot-sized bet in on a non [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] turn.
