Default Re: Flopping a small set from the BB , how do you play them?

I like betting out too, at it offers you the best chance to build a pot and bust someone or double up, but why the whole pot? You want callers. Lead for half or 2/3. People will come along with second pair or something a lot more frequently. If they all fold for half pot, you weren't going to get much out of them anyway. If an obvious draw comes in on the turn, just make sure to proceed with caution. A smaller bet on the flop is a lot more inviting for someone to raise you too - you don't mind getting all in on a flop like that obviously.
