Any comments about anything appreciated.

99% of the time NO.

But there is a 1% where you know the player/have a read on him, and have a strong feeling he has a set of kings.

Fold 0% of the time in a .50/1 game

I think he has KQ a lot in this spot, though QQ is very possible too. There's no way you can fold this though.

I knew he loved his hand and I even thought he played it like KK, but still I've seen people do things that didnt seem plausible so I couldn't make myself fold.

Hero calls $89.60.

River: ($0) 3 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $232.20

He showed KK

Was just wondering if I played this hand profitably long term. I have been set under set a lot lately so I'm wondering if there people out there who are folding these on the flop/safe turn.

Sorry

I never fold sets unless there's some overpowering indication that I'm beat, like 4 to a straight on the board.

No ... I don't think so. There's two hands that beat you and neither one of them should be panicking about anything. This is usually KQ.

Villain played this like crap.

Villain didn't play it that badly. No sense blowing people off their hands with top set on a K32 rainbow board. Turn puts some very unlikely draws out there, but the Hero has shown that he will likely bet again. The push is a little overkill, but will draw curious calls a lot from worse hands. Possibly even hands like AK.

hmmm I am not as optimistic about my set of 3s in this spot, especially if this player is at all decent. The open pre flop check on such a ragged flop always has me weary of my hands, especially when the turn card is an under and my opp moves it in. I think you'll see way more sets played like this than ak or kq. Why would the villain just go nuts for 100 bb on a bluff in this weird spot??

At .50/1.00 this is AA, AK, KQ, 22 as easily as it is KK or QQ.

Ship the chips in, you will profit in the long run.

If the guy is a frequent c-bettor then then raise pf, check flop line is about 90% a set. It's called the OMGIFLOPPEDASETIHAVETOSLOWPLAY complex. It's a typically stupid line that you see a lot at low stakes. On this hand it's paired with the OHNOTHERESAFLUSHDRAWIMINTROUBLE ridiculous turn overbet.

Really everything about this hand screams that villain is a bad player with KK. Still I can't fold the turn. I'm not sure if that's a leak or not. It's always a good idea to have rivering quads as a backup plan.

Reads are helpful here. If villain is generally aggressive post flop after a flop raise then this is rarely AA, AK, or KQ. He'd bet all of those on the flop. If villain is "tricky" then those hands become more likely.

because people suck

Set over Set doesn't exist. Having said that, I never fold a set, if a set is the winning hand. You can fold sets on drawsheavy boards.
But keep in mind: Set over Set doesn't exist. It's just a ferritale.

I'd be far more inclined to fold a set on a dry board than on a drawy board, unless you meant the draws already got there...

I break my wrist calling this. Then I break my fingers punching a wall if I'm beaten (sw).

yepp, like 4 to a straight and so on.

really?


wish you told the FTP software designers that little rule of thumb before i got stacked TWICE today by this mythical occurance...

If an opponent has a set here, it is going to be very rare that they over shove the turn, as they never want to miss value with such a big hand. Especially after he slow played the flop.

... best... post... ever...

SUCCEED

Ya i agree there is a chance that set over set is possible but not likley i dont see a fold being the right move there.

This is a insta call for 110bbs...
