up to 50nl you´re supposed to pay off over sets. since the average player will stack off w/ TPTK+ you need some kind of a monster read to let your set go. i might fold a set on a four flush board if stacks aren´t deep enough to draw to a boat. bottom set in a limped/weak raised pot, where the action explodes might be a spot to fold, too.

Most of the time you will see AQ do the same thing here. Laying it down on this board w/o a 3 flush or a 3 straight like T98 monotone is impossible at these limits

[bigspenda73]

I know one thing, you def. have a set.

[zook]

Yep, always paying it.

[Miffed22001]

up to 100nl you´re supposed to pay off over sets.

FYP, but you have the jist of it.

[yorib]

Here all the time. Villian could have AQ/AJ just as easily as could you.

[Seasider]

I'd raise flop, check raise turn all in (and pay it off)

Edit - esp as he only has $15!!

no, here is one example where I was sure I was beat. I even typed 33 in the chat before folding.

[koolmoe]

I don't know if the stakes really matter, but with 100 BB effective stacks I'm pretty much always paying off without an outstanding read.
