    Default Did I miss value here?

    I'm new to this site. Have less than 200 hands at it. Just started playing 6max. I've played 99% of other ring at full ring.

    Villian is 41/30 over 17 hands. This hand happens after about 2 orbits. This guy has been raising all over the place and has been aggressive after the flop.

    Table "Redeyed" Seat 5 is the button.
    Seat 1: Darla18 ($99.37 in chips)
    Seat 2: SclimNaPo sits out
    Seat 3: psfpf ($75.25 in chips)
    Seat 4: Villian ($104.38 in chips)
    Seat 5: Hero ($94.50 in chips)
    Seat 6: Lennie1 ($108.99 in chips)
    Lennie1: posts small blind $0.50
    Darla18: posts big blind $1
    ----- HOLE CARDS -----
    dealt to Hero [9d Td]
    psfpf: folds
    Villian calls $1
    Hero calls $1
    Lennie1: calls $0.50
    Darla18: checks
    ----- FLOP ----- [5d 7d 6h]
    Lennie1: checks
    Darla18: checks
    Villian bets $4
    Hero calls $4
    Lennie1: folds
    Darla18: folds
    ----- TURN ----- [5d 7d 6h][Kh]
    Villian bets $10
    Hero raises to $20???

    I want to conceal my draw here. I want it to look like a 25NL I've got a set play. I know he is going to call. So the question is, did I kill value or is that offset by concealing my hand?

    Normally I would make it $30-35 to go here.

    abuse the fact that you have position on anyone

    from what it looks like hes not aggro....he open limped the CO

    Take advantage of people who voluntarily put dead money in the pot and come in for a raise.

    Raise the flop unless this guy is a ridiculous calling station. Your turn play doesn't make much sense as you're basically just putting in the maximum amount that doesn't give you any fold equity.

    Will raise from position more.

    Will stop trying to be cute and make real bets/raises from now on.

    Thanks again.

    ahiltz,

    I raise this preflop everytime unless villian is a huge calling station postflop even when OOP. And raise flop here. On turn I would probably just call, your draw has lost a lot of value with only one card to come. And opp, who seems like a donk, probably wont recognize this as a typical "i have a set"-line.
