Title: Middle Set on a connected board Post by: ACE2M on February 11, 2006, 09:42:06 AM After the good discussion on the folly of laying down middle set on an unconected board, what about a connected board as this crops up often enough to be a problem worth considering.
Middle postion raiser of 4 x bb called by you on the button and the bb. A board of 9s Th Jd , you have hit a set of tens and are last to act from the button. BB checks Raiser bets 2/3 pot You double his raise BB moves all in (has you covered) Raiser folds Are you calling? Middle postion raiser of 4 x bb called by you on the button and the bb.

Title: Re: Middle Set on a connected board Post by: ACE2M on February 11, 2006, 11:04:08 AM Cash game, in order to get a realistic decision, to easy to call in a tourney.
Stacks are whatever is an amount which would matter to you. say it's NLHE $2/$4 Original raise was to $20 called by you and the BB Original raiser (has $500) has raised to $40 You ($450) have re raised to $80 BB has moved all in for $400. Title: Re: Middle Set on a connected board Post by: doubleup on February 11, 2006, 11:11:50 AM I think this completely depends on stack sizes. Your going to be ahead some of the time, but up against a big draw. In deep brown stuff slightly more than well ahead, but still a lot less than up against the big draw. You are going to be drawing the rest of the time. So lets say 10- 1 fav 5% of the time, 10-1 dog 10% of the time, 2-1 dog 40% of the time and even money 45%. I think this all adds up to wiining about 40%, so I'm calling this if my pot odds are 6/4 or better.

Based on my analysis I'm calling here. Something has occured to me - does the size of the overbet increase the likelyhood of the big draw? If it does maybe this is always a call.
