22 squeeze turn set

Monday, January 4th, 2010


I could have bet the flop because although I put QQ and JJ in his cold 3 bet calling range, it is also in my sb 3 betting range. I didn’t think I had fold equity but countering this was the fact that I had no showdown value with 22, so I should have c-bet. But the turn was great. I never expect him to check back a set in a big pot on that wet board. It’s also a good spot for a bluff or semi-bluff. So when he checks back his range is made hands like a pocket pair smaller than TT, or a hand like AJs or AK that has equity (some clean over-card outs and a gutter). So betting $5 on the turn sets up a less than pot size bet on the river. The question is should I be check-folding, bet folding or shoving a diamond river that does not pair the board?
