C/R Vs. Betting out with sets from EP
Here's the scenerio. You limp with PP and it's raised behind you, or you're calling a raise from the blinds.
You flop the set and are 100%(or close to it) sure the PFR is going to bet out. Do you attempt the C/R? If you say no, are there ever conditions under which you do this(small pots, HU, board texture etc...)? |

It depends almost entirely on my position relative to the preflop raiser. If he's on my left, I'm probably check-raising. On my right, I'm probably betting out.
If he's in the middle then it depends on other stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

If he's waaaay to my left (ie, I'm the BB and he's the CO/button, etc) then I'll probably bet out. If he's on my immediate left (UTG/UTG+1 when I'm BB) then I'll check-raise. |

This is correct. I hope you all see why. [/ QUOTE ] yeah, you are looking to trap as many people as possible. if it's SH or HU is it better to Donkbet it? What types of players are we donkbetting if this is the right play(aggressive and rocks correct?) |

Re: C/R Vs. Betting out with sets from EP
Depends. Heads-up, I'll bet (hoping the PFR will raise like he should) and call. I'll check the turn, he'll bet thinking I'll fold, and I'll check-raise there. I'll use this about 50-75% of the time in that situation.
With a few people in the pot, it depends on the texture of the flop. If it's non-threatening, I'll check hoping to trap a few callers, and then raise (or re-raise even). |

Villain will usually raise unimproved AK in this spot and will almost always bet the turn no matter what happens. |

[/ QUOTE ] If by "donkbet" you mean lead out the turn, yes, every time. I don't usually want to drive villain out of the hand, which is what might happen with a c/r, and it would kill me if villain should check behind. And again, often a PFR will handle the raising for me. |
