$3/$6 am I way off base here???

my take on the hand is that the guy is an idiot who bought in for $50 and he doesn't have anything but two big cards. i think he was re-raising on the flop just trying to get away with the pot. i would check a set on the flop here to somebody like him figuring he'll probably play at the weak flop and my weak check.

This hand really doesn't need this much discussion. Betting or checking isnt changing much. The guy most likely didn't have [censored] because no one who short buys is making a stellar laydown because the flop was capped. He most likely wasn't even betting the turn when checked to. That whole studying bit was a bunch of posturing. Just tell your brother not to check sets when he flops them and only has one person left to act behind him.

RAISE RAISE RAISE RAISE RAISE RAISE RAISE

That should get him all-in.

I would have bet the flop - nobody is going to believe that you have anything.

After that - you RAISE. If you flop a set and lose you BETTER lose a lot of money or else you played it wrong. UNLESS of course it's obvious but . . .not this time.

You have top set and top boat draw!

Is the average person really going to put in say, 10 bets here without a straight? I guess against a random guy who bought in for 50 bucks, I can see getting it all in here.

Villain could have limped a big PP here fearing he will merely fold out the blinds. I think I c/r the turn here, although keeping the gas down on the flop ain't bad either. I guess I don't think it matters much either way, unless the board is 2-tone.
