2nd Level bottom set to UTG pusher

[mousey]

This was a very tough call for me. I had a weak hand preflop 22 and I probably should never have gotten involved in the hand to begin with.

The guy who was in BB always min raises any preflop raiser so I wasn't afraid of him. What really shocked me was the guy who pushed under the gun and me hitting a set. I was afraid he hit a higher set himself 55; My other guess was that he somehow hit a straight or was pushing a flush draw. The min re-raiser called pretty quick so I expected that A to help him.

Anyways, let me know what you think. Blinds were 50 and I had called 150 preflop holding about 1200 chips.

I normally fold that preflop unless you have a read that the raiser will give you all his chips if you flop a set. I cant see folding your set, even to 2 all ins. You will run into a bare ace, 2 pair and a flush draw more than enough times to make this call.

Preflop is normally a fold, but with the hands you were showing me last night on AIM these PR donks are so horrible that a call might be worthwhile. I'd still probably fold, but you can defend a call.

Postflop, this is the easiest call in history.

In holdem you really shouldnt worry about someone flopping an over set to your under set. I believe the chances of two people flopping a set at the same time is over 1000/1. So generally you shouldnt ever worry about this.

Agreed. You got what you wanted so call!!!!!!

Of course I intend to call, but it is still a bit nervous cause your curious what kind of crap they are pushing with, and then you have to survive the suck out lol. Have to admit his raise is something of an eye raiser.

I called but not without pondering his cards first.
