I probably bet 35 on the flop, no big deal though. Check is not awful either because you can get ppl behind you and the raiser but I definitely prefer to lead.

From my experience, from both sides, it's much much harder to get away from TPTK if you are lead into on the flop

I agree, and I do this a lot with my sets against fewer opponents and with stronger reads.

Betting full pot is insane to me, though. I rarely lead for a lot more than half. I want my bet to appear as a weak lead for a cheap turn on a flush draw so I can get raised big. Leading for less also lets missed hands, like UI AKo and underpairs, raise trying to represent the bigger hand. They'd be much less inclined to do this against a PSB.

i wouldn't 2nd guess myself. neither of them had anything this time, or felt frisky enough to raise you up. no big deal.

The good news is that you now know that you can make this same move with air.

I like a check raise here, because of the relative postition of the pre flop raiser. If he bets here there are still three other villains left to act after him and I want to trap a couple of them in the middle.
