Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6685712, member: 397965"] Preflop With 23BB I actually prefer to just open fold the smallest pairs like 33. The reason is, you are to deep to make a profitable open jam, and if you min-raise, like you did, you dont want to call a 3-bet from any of the opponents behind. And even if someone just call, 33 dont play well postflop with shallow stacks. Flop Flopping a set can always make up for preflop mistakes. Betting here is of course fine, and not going to go into sizing, because I dont think, its all that important here. Turn You could be behind to a flush now, but its also possible, someone just improved to two pair. So I dont think, this card is a bad, as it might look, and betting again is fine. If you get raised, you will need to get it in and just hope, you are ahead, or that the board will pair on the river. River This is clearly not the card or action you were hoping for, and now your hand is solely a bluff catcher. The opponent bet full pot, but actually you are the effective stack, so its only half pot for you to call, meaning you only need to be good 1 in 4 times. The fact, you have a set, hardly even matter, because he is most likely not turning two pair into a bluff. He is representing a good flush like Qd or Jd, and its kind of difficult to see, how he can even have that, unless he already had a flush on the turn. But its also difficult to see, what he can arrive with here, that completely lack showdown value and has to bluff. So I am ok letting it ok, but I would also not mind calling from time to time in spots like this, just to get a feel for, what the population is your games are doing this with. [/QUOTE]
