    Default Bottom Set VS drawy flop. Did I raise enough?

    Both villians are new to table, only around 10 hands or so. They both seem to be playing a wide range of limping/calling hands.

    Should I have raised more? I thought my raise was probably a little too small, maybe I should've made it like 55-60c to go.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP ($2.02)
    CO ($0.91)
    Button ($1.24)
    SB ($2.88)
    Hero (BB) ($2.25)
    UTG ($5.46)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 4, 4
    2 folds, CO calls $0.02, 1 fold, SB bets $0.08, Hero calls $0.06, CO calls $0.06

    Flop: ($0.24) 4, Q, 8 (3 players)
    SB bets $0.16, Hero raises to $0.42, CO calls $0.42, SB ???

    Total pot: $1.24

    i think anything from 40 to 65 is fine here. Turn play?

    .70 looks about right

    i didn't consider how many gutshots there were.
    But I still think that 60 would be fine?
    does being 3-way make it that much different do you think?

    You have a monster and its 5NL.. I always raise a little harder at micros because if they will call .60 won't they call .70-.80? Get as much money in as possible as fast as you can if you have monster equity.

    at 2NL and 5NL: overbets on drawy flops rarely discourage the chase.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    the nice thing about 70 is it leaves a simple turn shove, and it's about a pot-sized raise anyways I believe.
