TPTK Bubble Hand

[parappa]

No special read on button. I became very nervous when he called the flop bet, but saw no alternative on the turn.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (5 handed)

BB (t1560)
Hero (t2065)
MP (t1240)
Button (t2325)
SB (t810)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
Hero raises to t300, MP folds, Button calls t300, SB folds, BB folds.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
Hero bets t800, Button calls t800.

Turn: 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>

no other way to play this... I dont see how you can check/fold TPTK when theres nothing else really on the board he would call 3x BB with preflop...

He flopped a set didnt he??

That's what I thought when he called. I think there are some spots where you have to put the other player on a monster when they call. It turned out that he was slowplaying aces. But as you say, I can't possibly put him on aces, so perhaps there's no other way to play it.
