$11: 33 Early game, Bottom set 3 way push

[mousey]

So anyways, this was a monster pot because of all the limpers. I probably should have folded to the flop bet but it was a 210 pot and a 20 call for a 2 outer, this gives me my 10.5 to call ( but barely ). I suspected though that if I DID hit the turn I would extract a full stack out of it to anyone who was limping the usual JQ and KQ hands. I wasn't going to take it much further past the turn though; and often times I am ahead to the A high bettors.

Nice play...Just bad luck running into 44.

You are absolutely right to call the flop bet. No way a min bet makes me drop 33 here, the implied odds are simply too good. If someone has a queen, you take their stack with your boat. If a 3 don't show on the turn, ditch the hand if anyone bets again, though.
