Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB ($7.75)
UTG ($10.50)
UTG+1 ($8.20)
MP1 ($62.40)
MP2 ($11.25)
MP3 ($65.50)
CO ($64.85)
Hero (Button) ($54.15)
SB ($77.90)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 10, 8
6 folds, Hero bets $1, SB calls $0.75, 1 fold

Flop: ($2.50) 5, 8, 2 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $1.50, SB raises to $5.50, Hero calls $4

Turn: ($13.50) 8 (2 players)
SB bets $8, [color=#CC3333]

I feel like I have the best hand here, and I don't think he would be betting out with a set or an AKflush draw...

Does reraising seem like a better way to get his money in? or just flat calling?

BankItDrew will become famous soon enough
 this is called 'trips' or 'three of a kind,' not a 'set.' A set is when you hold a pocket pair hand hit a third card of your pair.

As far as the hand goes: both of your ranges are still very wide due to this being a BvB situation. Since both ranges are still wide - I'm flatting to disguise the strength of my hand. Feel really happy about many river cards and just about every action villain takes on the river.

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

I flat because when we raise we generally overrep our hand and it looks like a set (which is a full house on this board)

and bet river if checked to

I just discovered a leak!

A wise man learns from his own mistakes, and those of the smart man and the fool.
