Did the hero get 8-1 on his money up front?

Hero got 16:1 on his money after the 3-bet, but on his initial call he only had 3.5:1

Why would you attempt a call pre-flop? You have a small pocket pair against a HUGE field, so therefore the only chance you can win is if you flop a set which is rare. (although it happened here)

It's call implied odds. Look it up, well, nevermind, you're defining it.

I really dont know why you would foldon the turn, either.

[/ QUOTE ]

You wouldn't.

If someone would be willing to explain why a pre-flop call would be good here, or why folding on the turn would be good here, that would be appreciated.

See above.

I also do like to think that I have good implied odds if I hit my small set in a hand like this.. and also a very easy hand to get rid of if you don't hit.

Final pot: 42.5BB
Initial investment: 2BB
Hero's total money in the pot: 8BB
Hero's net: 42.5BB - 8BB = 34.5BB
Hero's return on investment: 34.5BB/2BB = 17.25-1

Odds to make your set on the flop ~8-1.

The poster did not provide a table read (tight or loose), which does influence hand selection in middle position.

Would anyone have changed their mind about folding preflop if it had been a tight table?

Not after 2 players limp. At most tables I'll play any pocket pair after 1 limper.

Actually, 8:1 after the 3-bet since he had to call 2 cold.
