****. bottom set 50max. lots of action

Invariably? It's not hard to conceive of a relatively extreme situation where bottom set would be a relatively easy fold on that flop with <100bb stacks. Although not so extreme to make it unrealistic, 'cause it's happened to me before.

(this is not exactly what happened, but the action was something crazy like this) Relatively tight table and 5 players in an unraised pot see a flop of 2 4 8 rainbow. SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets half pot, UTG+1 calls, LP calls, SB raises 4x the bet, BB re-raises 3x that, UTG shoves. If you're UTG+1 or LP with 22, it's a pretty easy fold against all but the most extreme set of players, no?

Yeah, I fold this too (provided we aren't shortstacked).

I would have folded. Glad you didn't. Dorkus' comments are true, but my play is more in line with a comment made by ChuckTs about not going broke in unraised PF pot.

The way I look at it is that if these guys play THAT bad, you will likely have a better/more certain situation in which you can take their money. Can't be results oriented here. Bottom line is that the guy who went over the top of the $17 raise could easily have 66 by the way it was played.
