    Default TT top set on super drawy flop 25NL

    On such a drawy flop am I best trying to ship it in on the flop? If I rerase what should the size be?

    This is not a bad beat story or anything, I'm just wondering what the raise size be considering we have 2 villains and the respective stack sizes. I'm raising this flop like 90-100% vs 2 villains.

    $0.1/$0.25 No Limit Holdem
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Profiles and Stacks:
    UTG ($18.45) 25.5/21.3/1.7 (94)
    UTG+1 ($40.15) 30.3/14.5/1.8 (76)
    CO ($27.70) 20.0/20.0/4.5 (35)
    BTN ($18.90) 22.9/10.0/3.5 (70)
    SB ($25.10) 34.9/18.6/4.0 (43)
    Hero ($34.90) 15.7/10.8/5.0 (268)

    Pre-flop: ($0.35, 6 players) Hero is BB
    UTG raises to $0.75, 3 folds, SB calls $0.65, Hero calls $0.5

    Flop: ($2.25, 3 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets $1.25, SB raises to $4, $4 to Hero ($34.15)?

    Don't want this flop checking through, so I would lead for $2 and push over a raise. As played, I would shove.

    i lead this flop, but since you didnt, i SHOVE.

    if i raise to $16ish, no way i can get away from any card. so, i either play like a real puss and raise to $10ish, and pray for someone else to shove, or MAN UP and shove myself.

    i would rather be the windshield than the bug.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    This is one of the hardest hands to play IMO. Any value in just folding and waiting for a better spot?

    i am NEVER folding top set on a 25NL table on the flop. i have too many outs to the boat at this point. if he has the straight, my redraw is likely 40% against him.

    Never online, heck, I've laid down bottom set in spots like this live, but top set is where I draw the line and go broke unless there is a sick amount of money behind.

    Of course I always push guys I was only curious if the full timers had any sort of weird logic into this.

    I hope that wasn't a response to my original post! I wasn't advocating fold ever. Just wondering to raise and to what amount or just shove. I think the majority think just shove.
