Default Re: WPT Championship Event hand

Even though button checked the flop, i still think there is a chance he can have a set. How about an internet qualifier that slowplays too much? How about a scared player that wants to wait for a safecard to hit on the turn to put in his stack with his set?

Regardless, Paluka's raise on this turn is representing a lot of strength and players can read it as a set or top two in this case and button is going all in for 50k over that, early in the tournament. Because of that, its hard to see button doing this with a draw. If i was the button I can not see good folding equity with a semi bluff in this spot. Who would make this play with a draw here?

I still think button has a set here, you dont know much about this random player. And if he is decent enough to know to bet the flop with a set he should be decent enough to read Paluka for having a lot of strength.
