How much would you bet hitting a set on drawing board?

I'm still betting this turn. But pretty small. He's raised out of the bb so he's not got that many flushes in his range, certainly no straights. So we're concerned about AKcc, AQcc AJcc mostly, perhaps KQcc. So thats 4 hands. We don't want to lose value from overpairs with clubs in or overpairs without clubs in that he can't let go of, so checking is a mistake imo.

Bet small, it'll be obvious if he has a flush, so you can fold if he raises too big, or call if he gives you implied odds to river a boat.

Got to promote the limping early!


Go as big as possible 4.2k looks good, check back turn

yeah agree with this. sorry didn't realise he'd raised from bb

edit : saying that, im not sure how many people are just gona flat overpairs to a raise on this flop, especially live.

I think In the long run this hand in this position is going to loose more than it will win so the cheaper I can play it the better you think? They checked after the turn and looked really uncomfortable so I went with my read and bet 6k thinking it wouldn't be  the price to call if they have a high club. After a while they called and    came on the river, they checked again and with that board I really didn't want to bet again. They turned over    and I felt like reaching across the table and poking them in the eyeball. Looking back I think I should have bet 5 or 6k after the flop. I'd lost over 30% of my stack in the early doors  xx

I agree that limping isn't bad at all and in this specific type of tournament where you'll likely go 4 or 5 way to the flop regardless preserving those chips is always a decent line, speshly when C-bets are way less likely to get through as well.

However I think a good base strategy for most spots is to always try and take a more aggressive option if you can as it makes you harder to play against - this obv isn't true of every situation but a good default to have.

I actually like limping over raising in this spot specifically thinking about it. Also good to try keep your image fairly passive in this section of these comps so when ante's kick in you can ramp up the aggro and get a bit more respect. (that's specific to this type of comp ofc)
