Default another \"set on a monotone board\" post 200nl

UTG+2 is 39/14/4 over 40 hands and my read on, MP2 is 29/7/1.6 and my note on him says he cannot lay down two pair even if the board is very scary.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) converter

UTG ($200)
UTG+1 ($232.80)
UTG+2 ($180)
Hero ($343)
MP2 ($202.90)
MP3 ($487.80)
CO ($196)
Button ($478.50)
SB ($196.60)
BB ($195.80)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls $2, Hero calls $2, MP2 calls $2, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to $8</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls $6, Hero calls $6, MP2 calls $6.

Flop: ($35) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $25</font>, MP2 folds, MP3 calls $25, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 raises to $50</font>, Hero?

easy push?

more like easy fold or a smooth call trying to fill up. hes not min-raising 2 players OOP with a K, hes already got the flush.

i'd be concerned here....I probably call and see what happens on the turn, i'd pray for the board to pair.

Bad spot, but I think you need to just call here. You have good implied odds if you fill up. If you don't boat up on the turn, you probably have to fold if he bets 1/2 pot or more.

Why are you opening on this flop?

UTG+2 looks like made flush already and is trying to build pot. id call and see turn.

Because you have a set. And anyone with a big spade in their hand would love to see a free turn.
