You have any reads? Those cold calls could be scary.
If villain normally won't over slowplay his monsters then I would lead for around $30.

20-30 is fine.

I hate these hands. The fact that he limped in is what bugs me. he could have a bigger set. He must be putting you on a low set or a medium over pair OR he's just a calling station with a couple of overcards.
This is read dependent. If he's a pretty passive player I fold. If he's loose or aggressive post flop I Bet the River. If I have no read on him I might check the river.
Bet half the pot on the river. If he has over cards or a missed gut shot draw he folds. If he raises let it go. I don't think you're going to push him off this pot.

I think that short of a really good read on someone, it is a mistake to fold a set (w/out a str8 or fl board out there)
You caould easily have someone playing a high PP or 2 pr after you. If you fold a set here you are losing money in the long run.

I'm thinking villain's on 66, 88 or 99.

Agree with Supa and Sean. $20-$30. If he comes over the top then you have a tough choice but I would at least call to make sure he isn't chumping me.

what are we folding a set to?
4 6 ? doubt it
higher set?
if you're folding a set because you think somebody has a higher set, its overthinking NL 100
i agree with supa here, im calling a push "hoping" hes got aces, queens or jacks ... but kings and tens are also possible holdings

ew.
I assume you called, and either he showed KT or a higher set.
Posted Mon Aug 14, 2006 10:12 am GMT by MrDarling
I guess two pairs (or a higher set)
Posted Mon Aug 14, 2006 11:25 am GMT by UrAteUp
My guess would be he has 2 pr. Call his min. raise just so you get no un-welcomed surprises.
So what happens next ? How did this hand end?

Just go all in. You're supposed to bust if its set over set anyway, and I think the majority of the time here you're still ahead.
If he does have you beat, just reload.

I'll jump on the table, and give you a reason to fold every hand. 8)

I'm losing coin on this one if the villian has a larger set. I'm betting the river and calling the min-raise, not pushing. The villian will generally only call if you're beat.
I doubt villian has 64, but it's possible. He may just have a good top pair, however, and is not afraid of a set because you've been betting out. For instance KQ/KJ may play the hand this way.
