I'm not totally sure about the flop check. I don't get tricky here until he bites back.

Edit: A set is when you flop three of a kind with a poker pair: eg you have 33 and the flop is 349. Trips is what you have. Just being nit picky.

You can raise the flop, but since you are HU I don't mind waiting until the turn. looks good.

I hear you. I just didn't want him to fold and I knew he didn't have an ace. I would play a normal opponent that way, especially with my weak ass kicker.

On the other hand, the pot is so small I would like the flop check... if the board were not 2 suited.
