Would like some comment on this hand. Did I play this right or wrong regardless of the result trying to analyze my play a little in 1/2 NL. I typically always raise $6 preflop as my standard open (only consider bigger than that if there has been action beforehand and then probably at a 70-30 raise vs. call)

Flopped my set but the board was scary. Would you have played it different? Didn't really have much of a read on the player either way and they had about 1/2 stack vs. me

On the draw heavy board, I bet out more on the flop, and more on the turn. Once he check raises your turn, I don't see why you min-raise him back. If at that point you think you have the best hand, push after his check raise, don't just min-raise back.

Agreed I meant to do as you said just didnt do it that way I was committed at that point just didn't execute it that way. Would you have gotten all in I assume on the flop if possible despite the draws being out there? I assume yes as that was my thought.

Yes, because someone who is playing relatively shorter stacked might get it in with a big K or two pair there. on the flop, the only hands you're behind is QJ, or KK, and KK seems unlikely here.

I would have bet the 3/4 or the pot or pot on the flop, rather than 1/2 the pot.

Good upgrade thanks Whiskey regarding the 3/4 bet. Assuming you do that and he raises you say $30 you push I assume? With his stack I am assuming you never get away from that hand on that board. I agree also with your King analysis I thought it possible for AK or maybe even KQ or lower due to his stack size.

pretty much what everyone else said, bet more on the flop, push instead of min-raise on the turn.

Well he had QJ for a flopped straight so needless to say I was in bad shape with my set and didn't improve.
