set of 5\'s facing all in
second hand of sit n go. I limp with pocket 5's , the button only doubles the blind. BB calls and I call. flop is A Q 5 rainbow. BB bets half pot, and I double the bet. The button goes all in. what are the odds he really has AA or QQ to beat me? I would think its a no brainer to call it. Am I over thinking this?

Result
I called and he turned over AQ suited. He ended up hitting runner runner for the flush. The joys of pokerstars ......

Re: Result
are you implying he would've folded to a push on the flop as opposed to pushing against the raise? otherwise it's just tough luck and not his fault.

[/ QUOTE ] this is a bad beat thread. 99% of the time you're up against a bare ace here because anything better (even AQ, two pair on this raggy flop) means that most people will AUTOMATICALLY slowplay it, not lead.

If you decide to play 55, what kind of flop are you looking for besides an uncoordinated rainbow flop containing a 5? A set is a very strong hand, and I'd get my chips in here, but I'd realize that low sets will lose to larger sets and flushes/straights. This does smell like a bad beat post...
