Message: [QUOTE="Jamalex, post: 5782365, member: 441208"] I agree with you that a set of 3's or 8's make the most sense to me when he min raises like that but the button was the aggressor preflop so his checking on the flop when he is first to act is very standard to me and means nothing. Leading out would have been the abnormal play there. But on such a dry board there is not much for him to check raise for value. Set's, two pair AA and AK maybe but I very much doubt he has AA, KK or AK. (Min raises either mean very strong or very weak at the stake I play at from what I've seen) I would not have been surprised if he was bluffing trying to appear strong. If it was a normal raise size I would have been less worried honestly but the min raise scared me. When I turned top 2 pair I did think about checking when he checked to me, but if he did have one of those other value hands besides a set I can get value here from them, and if he did have a set then I am hoping on the river he checks to me to induce so I can check back. (unless its a K or Q on river which would be beautiful) I'm glad my bet size seemed correct for my choice, I find that to be the hardest part of poker for me right now. Then on the river of a 3 he went from 6 combos to 4 combos for his sets which is good but at the same time, the two pairs I tried to get small value from on turn just rivered a boat...As much as this hand sucked, I just never was going to fold the river. Maybe if I checked turn and called river he wouldn't have shoved and I could have saved money. I appreciate the advice and the SB had quad 3's:rolleyes:Thank you for taking the time! [/QUOTE]
