This is a perfect example of why you don't limp/call with small pocket pairs in early position. It also shows why the stack a donk line is so transparent and should be avoided against wary opponents.

i'd expet to see 56, 9T or a set here really often, 56 more often probably unless you've created a dynamic that villain will make this play w/ a draw, or you have a read that villain is a bluffy/spewy type player. i think 56 you' see a lot more actually since most peopel aren't dumb enough to slowplay a set on a board this draw heavy ... but you never know. i just can't imagine you are good here.

however, i did play a hand the other day at 25nl that went down like this ... i was so sure i was beat but ... obviously this shows that these 25nl players are too unpredictable and can show up w/ some really wacky stuff ....
