iF IT'S SO THAT DON'T COMPLAINT WHEN YOU GET PAYED WITH THE SAME COIN.

You are paying? How much are you offering? If it is enough, I'm sure you'll be able to find someone willing to help you.

Let's say this solid player only plays face cards, suited Aces and pairs. If he has a pair bigger than 66s, you are in big trouble. Even if he has two face cards you are only a slight favorite (if you are heads up). So is it really worth it to call his raise?

So are you saying that calling a raise from BB with 66 is wrong???

No matter what he was saying, the preflop call is a no brainer.

No. I would probably call the PF raise as well. I think it would be hard for me to get away from the set, but if the PR raiser was as "solid" as I define solid, I think I get out after the raise, re-raise with the all-diamond flop.

I think my main point was to steer away from the "f..k you" posts and get scalafab see why people were telling him he should have folded.

when you flop a set
the last thing you want to do
is fold on the flop

A habit of this
cannot be made or profits
will burn to a crisp

now enough with the haiku lol...isn't it supposed to be about nature and beauty and not gambling? fun as it is and all. he can't fold here, solid can surely have other hands than QQ like overpair diamond draws...gotta see this one through. if you're making a habit of folding a set on the flop in limit poker in this situation i think you're leaving you're meal ticket on the table.

Default Reason to fold pre-flop

I would be concerned about the two early limpers.

Have they been limping and then reraising. How aggressive is the pre-flop play.

If one of these EP limpers had 10/10 - AA you could be looking at havinig to call another bet or possibly two. The additional bet should not nec. stop you but if you had to call two I don't think you are getting proper odds but others would know better.
