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

[ QUOTE ]
In an uncoordinated board or a board with an Ace on it checking probably is safer because everyone loves limping with ace rag.

I almost always lead out with a flopped set, I just vary my bet size according to the board. On a coordinated board, I lead out with a bet of about 3/4 pot.

On an uncoordinated board I often lead out with a bet of about 1/3 the pot, and hope somebody reads this as a weak steal attempt.

The only exception to this is an uncoordinated board with an A. I lead at this with a 3/4 pot bet also. Not to protect my hand but because those players that love to play Ace rag are not usually letting go so easily. Lead into them, and when they call check the turn if it's a brick. Most of the time they cannot help but push after you check the turn.
