Default Re: Flopped Set - Big action

This is a no brainer in my mind.

What is UTG+1 doing? He could have a great hand and is inviting callers. But that is pretty silly with a flush draw out there. More likely he is trying to bluff at the pot and doesn't want to risk his whole stack.

MP1 is short stacked and has to be aggressive. He could make this play with an K or a flush draw. This is a great point to get his chips all in if he hit any piece of the flop.

MP3 likely has a pretty good hand. Maybe TPTK. Be he could also have a nut flush draw that he wants to get heads up with MP1 on.

You are only afraid of KK or 77. You can rule out KK. Anyone other than UTG+1 would have reraised preflop. Hard to believe that UTG+1 wouldn't have either put in a stronger post flop bet or check raised if he had KK.

That leaves 77 and if someone has that then you lose. Thats why its called gambling...

hero beats him into the pot. No way I ever lay down a set on this type of board on PP.

Call. With a flush draw and a high card, there's all sorts of things everyone could have here that you're way ahead of, especially given how early it still is in the tourney so everyone is playing pretty loose. I think this is definitely a call.

Only possible mistake here is not being a bit more agressive on the flop see if a big K might over play his hand. If one starts floding sets in situations like this he might as well play another game poker is not for him.
