Post flop play - How do you play it and why ?
noble1:
gr8 leigh lol lol ;D a situation to analyze with no reads on opponent and no idea of your image to him.
Great flop isn"t it , a set is normally so much fun to play..Put this on most forums and pretty much all replies will be ""protect your hand"" or ""you have a big hand get your chips in""....For me it would be ""it depends""....
The only time i am cautious with a set is when you get flops like this,a straightening board or good conservative players giving you plenty of action....
I have run across him on Full Tilt but i"ve never played him on stars where he plays mainly,and he is tight ABC with the odd move...
So any bet you make on this texture of flop if called will be pretty much the hand you dread AKss AQss AJss ATss KQss KJss TJss or if your lucky a big over pair with a spade...Without knowing what he thinks of your image i would say generally he would if you bet out call the made flush and start jamming on the turn,and if he has a big over pair with a spade given that he has 22bb left he"ll probably re-raise all in...If he has Ace spade with a decent non spade kicker he might get freaky on the flop [given stack size] but that depends on your image and how he would perceive your lead out..
Given your position/stack size i"d take a check call line on the flop and see a turn card if a non pairing non spade turn i"d check call a reasonable bet on the turn and if he fires a 3rd barrel on the river any non pairing card then i"d lay it down..
If he were to check the turn and there is no spade on the river i"d fire out with a value bet and hope he only calls or spew up if he went all in... ;D

There"s just over 3k in the pot, I"d lead out with a pot sized bet. If you had a Flush, it"s unlikely you"d make such a bet so this could look like A9 and / or big flush draw and he might stick them in to protect his overpair / flush draw. IMO, the 3k bet is the best way for you to get the info that will lose you the minimum / win you the maximum.
Chipaccrual:
Very little reads I"m afraid. Hade been at the table for about 20-25 mins, so didn"t really have much to offer. Most of you seem to be saying, caution, but try to get your chips in. ;D
Here"s what happened.
*** FLOP *** [7s 9s :3s:]
Chipaccrual: bets 3200
Big4390: raises 5950 to 9150
Chipaccrual: raises 11279 to 20429 and is all-in
Big4390: calls 9050 and is all-in
Uncalled bet (2229) returned to Chipaccrual
I"m now curious as to what Noble1 thinks the guy is holding as he has played him on Tilt a bit. Anyone else want to offer suggestions before I reveal ?
