This hand occurred in a WSOP Step 3 ($200+20).
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter SB (t970) BB (t535) UTG (t1000) Hero (t930) UTG+2 (t975) MP1 (t940) MP2 (t925) MP3 (t730) CO (t2055) Button (t940) Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG calls t15, Hero calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to t99</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls t99, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls t84, Hero calls t84. Flop: (t421) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> UTG checks, Hero checks, MP1 checks, Button checks. Turn: (t421) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t300</font>, MP1 calls t300, Button calls t300, UTG folds. River: (t1321) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets t541 (All-In)</font>, Button folds, Hero calls t531 (All-In). Final Pot: t2393 On the river here, MP1s play looked very suscpiciously like a flopped set that decided to slow play. Does anyone fold here? Comments on earlier streets welcome as well. (Preflop, I told myself I would call if two others called after the PFR. On the flop my plan was to check raise all-in.) Paul |

Re: bottom set vs slowplaying PFR
preflop call: I completely understand the call here, considering that you're closing the action. Furthermore, there's a high probability of gaining many chips as all callers/raiser believe they have a strong hand.
Set over set. In general, I think all times that there is a set over set, you will lose (unless there is an obvious hand that beats you, like flush or a 4 card board straight). I see your point. What your saying is that your instincts are telling you you've lost here. I too have a hard time trusting my instincts in situations like this. Let me know if you find a solid solution. I lose all my chips here. |

I agree set/set is tough to get away from. I think this hand has all the ingredients that may make it possible. Deep stacks (from a SNG standpoint) and an obvious slowplay. Paul |
