Played rly good

no pic no proof ! ))

good luck anyway

Would like to know what are the odds for set over set ... if u get a pp 1 out of 16 hands (am i right ?) and hit a set 1 out of 7 times, then it should be something like:

1/16*1/16 = odds for both holding pps then that s 1 to 256

Then 1/256*1/7*1/7 in order to both hit sets on the flop that s 1 to 12544 ? Obviously not talking about who has the better pair and whatnot, overall on the long run we know cards should even and u dont suffer from sets over sets because half the time you have the bigger pair assuming everybody play their pps (there a ton lot of factors but just out of curiosity).

I don't feel like figuring it out, sorry bro.
Odds aren't that far against (ie not 1:256) that 2 people hold pocket pairs preflop in a 9 or 10 handed game, though

whoa. how did the hand play out that you could fold a set?

I don't feel like this particular fold was very impressive but its more the idea of me folding when I know I ought to and trusting myself. It also helped that I had bottom set (though I'd probably fold anything but top or 2nd top set here or a straight obv)
1-3 game, $500 effective behing
I limp 22 UTG+1, older guy who is pretty tight but can bluff sometimes raises to $20, nitty shortstacked tard calls in the blinds ($150 behind)

Flop A29r.
Nit checks, I check, old guy checks

Turn 5r
Nit checks, I bet $55 into the ~$60
Old guy tanks, talks a good bit, and raises to $190
Nit/retard calls off his stack (pretty sure he has 2pair or a set here, I fold due to old guy's line)
I fold

Oldguy has AA
Nit mucks 2pair


I was so impressed with myself that I put the hand aside so the dealer could show it but he absentmindedly mucked it anyway. I told the table I had 22 just cuz I was so impressed with myself (I won't do this again as I think its -ev but w/e).

It was really funny because the old guy's mind was completely blown and he was internally freaking out about how transparent he was. He brought up the hand multiple times over the next 4 hours trying to get me to tell him how I figured out he had top set haha.

sick disciplineeee

I hope I win again someday :D!

nice fold! i probably would've called it off. someone told me never to fold a set in a live game. he had a set pretty deep with lots of action and was thinking of folding...but went what the heck "set" and won. but trust your reads!

I think you can probably fold a set a lot more confidently live than online, though it depends on the circumstances.

I hate those fucking old guys that play live, just sit there and fold every hand waiting for AA/KK.

where's the river deuce...

lol ya I was sweating the river so hard after I folded, like, "this is going to be the one time this month I would of hit quads, just as the ultimate slap in the face"
