And IMO, hero should have folded preflop.

You are correct that I should have folded PF, but this was an action table, and I figured I would have the over- callers to allow me equity for the set. So I made an error in judgement.

I do make it a habit of following my PF raises with a continuation bet on an Ace- high board, but after being stung by the classic "slowplay" several times, it is understandable why the villian decided to slow down.

It should be understood that the general tendencies of a typical live small stakes player is to slowplay and let the pre- flop raiser hang him or herself with aggressive betting. Several props have learned to slow down when a bullet hits the board.

The usual default play is to check the flop and force the slowplayer to bet their own hand.

I understand I made an error in judgement, but got lucky with an opportune flop. But I do think this illustrates what Deranged was trying to say.
