Anyone fold here?
Tantalar
He has a set, but you have to call unless you put him on the set
BudBundy
^^^^^ makes sense.
simo_8ball
You calling or shoving?
BudBundy
He can easily have two pair or JT9 something.

He can easily have a set.

This is very read dependant. (As in i have no ****in clue on how to play this)
BudBundy
Calling doesn't make sense to me.

Fold and push are the only options. I push this most of the time but don't know if it is good or bad.

I agree that calling would be an odd play (although I do like making some odd plays at times).

I don't think folding can be correct when there are so many hands I'm beating/tying.

That leaves push as pretty much the only sensible decision left IMO.

As crazy as you play and if he is paying attention he could be doing this with such a wide range of hands. Why is calling so bad? You have position on the turn. If he is ahead now he instacalls and if has a marginal holding he is most likely not willing to call raise, but he might bet a harmless looking turn.

Tough one here, but I don't think calling is that bad a play.

Tricky spot but It's a draw heavy board and you have outs no matter what he has. I wouold push here.
