I smelled a slow played set. I figure maybe hes content to slow play it with one flush draw but with two out there hes going to try and take it down. How would you play it?

Default Re: top and bottom two pair

I think I call this turn and then re-evaluate on the river. He could easily be betting 76s as a tight player, and I don't want to fold right away for 12 more into a pot of 40. Unimproved, I'd check-call a 1/2 to 3/4-pot bet. If I spike the Q, I think checkraise is good, since two pair will just fold out and a set (which will be a lower boat) will have to call.

If a heart or spade falls on the river, you may be able to show down for free, so I'd definitely call this turn bet.
