In hold'em I would never dream of chasing a boat, but the day I played this hand, I had read somewhere that a flopped top set has about a 40% chance to fill up. Incredibly, that means it's correct to call down with 3 people or more in the hand -- especially one off the button and the low possibility dwindling. (Right?)

Bottom line: I hit my out, rivered the case Q for 11BB. Villain had 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and had flopped the nut flush. Twodimes says I was 27% to win on the turn and 20% on the river. It felt weird, but I think I'm beginning to understand these odds. Can anyone point out anything I did wrong on this hand?
