How often a set?

    Default How often a set?

    1st hand $5 STT. 1500 chips, 10/20 blinds. In MP w/ KK I raise 4BB, button calls, the rest fold.

    Pot's 190. Flop is 7d3c2c. I bet 140, button raises to 480.

    1st thought was "It's a set!" But then I wondered, 88+ or AQc etc.

    Looks like he has 73o.

    Your cbet seems pretty big no?

    Your sizing probably narrows his c/r range quite a bit...though I'm no tourney expert.

    I'm getting it in, there are much more combos of 88-QQ than there are sets.

    You're good enough to get it in from a pure chips point of view; it's just a matter of how nitty you want to be in the early stages. This comes down to ICM, which is why this should be posted in Tournament Poker.

    As for flop cbet, standard to bet like 150->420->shove here. 140 is fine.

    Yup that's the range, possibly a club draw in the mix too.
    Probably going to shove it all in though hoping its good and holds up, or catches a king if necessary, or gets the weaker draws to fold before they catch.

    whatever you do, don't fold. in a $5 sng you will see all kinds of crap. raise > call. folding isn't even part of the equation.

    All in . He could have top pair, he could have straight draws, flushdraws a lot of combos that you are in front
