    I'd argue that it's better to set xxx/86/933 because it increases your chances of making a boat or quads on the bottom (if you set a pair on the bottom UTG you'll catch at least one more of them roughly 35% of the time), which in turn increases your chances of making FL. If you take this line, on the first draw you set AQ on top and muck the J. On the second draw, the trip 3 goes on the bottom, you pair the 8 in the mid, and muck the deuce. On the third draw, you pair the A on top to set up FL and place the K in the mid. You only have 5 outs to make the draw (two 6s and three Ks, but the implied odds of getting the 9 point royalty on top and FL if the draw comes home make this the correct play). Happily, on the last draw, you make your hand, setting the K in the mid to make two pair, setting the 7 low, and mucking the 4.

    You final hand is
