I think so. Flopping sets suck don't it?

I've been open raising pf with middle pairs lately though.

limp pf is ok at this time imo; flop raise good, now with the reraise id push... the turn is crap, can bluff at it but its too early, so check.

Just get it in on the flop, looks like he likes his hand. As played I'd check.

However it is kind of hard to put him on a hand that hit the turn. Open ended I can see, my guess is he's got tens, maybe two pair...

kind of hard? how is it hard? you just think of a likely range that he will have preflop (any two cards) then go from that to a smaller range after each action. continue until the turn, and then see that the T is very likely to have hit him.

or not. why don't you give us your range for him after each action.

Yeah I can see him having a Q here but since he's raised the flop it's probably not without something like QT or QJ, in which case only the QJ means the ten will beat you. PF he could have AQ and KQ as well but I doubt they'd play the flop this way. The other end of the straight is pretty unlikely too. Am I so off base here?

Definitely check the turn. Cry and fold if he bets river and you don't improve.

Your range is seriously two hands JAMOOL? Did you even think about doing what I asked...? I didn't ask to waste your time. It would be instructive for you.

But whatever, it's your poker game.
