Could this disaster been aviodable??

Hi,

No. He could be making this play with AA/KK/87. You can't fold a set unless they show you the bigger set. Its just so rare the set over set.

Prevent this? You could have raised 10k preflop and hoped for the steal, but if they call and you don't hit your set, you have to pray they missed and dont call your flop bet. So no, you can't prevent this.

Your opponents not getting luckier then you is one of the major factors of making final tables. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
