I flop a set of 3's and shove the turn:

I turn a set of 7's and overshove the river:

I think I played both correctly ...

Anonymous said...: Interested to hear your perspective with the 33 hand. Do you think the min-raise on the flop in some ways telegraphs the strength of your hand to thinking players?

When flopping sets on a board like that I have been putting in much larger raises so as not to give my opponent odds to draw to a straight. As a result I'm not winning many stacks with my sets at the moment. Really not sure if I'm being too results oriented or not.

Bad luck with the 77 hand. Hard to not lose your stack in that situation.; July 15, 2007 at 5:04 PM

The 77 hand was just a complete cooler. I'm losing to 99 only given the action (A9, K9, 9x, 44, etc all play it the same).; July 15, 2007 at 5:28 PM
