I don't think I played this hand very well at all by checking the turn - That's my first stupid mistake.
On the turn I did consider folding however, as I could see AA being slow-played here (but not likely since I've got one of them.)

Also I still counted ~23 that I counted which could've undone my set (any 4,5,6,9,J and 3 T's.)

Thoughts/opinions anybody?

no need to raise pre, this is an average at best hand with no suits OOP and the whole table in.

bet the flop.

as played, raise flop.

as played on turn you're here just check again. you're not folding, this is a great card for you.

if you're going to lead turn, just pot it.

I'm not sure if you are slow playing here or being cautious. Hands like middle or bottom set or top two are where you can be cautious sometimes, with top set you want to go for the gold. If someone has a big draw they just have it.

Given that Co limp/called pre I think it's just as likely he has A8 as AA (not to mention some uber combo draw) I'm fist pumping flop and easily on the happy side on turn.
