Message: [QUOTE="momoney2, post: 824866, member: 31250"] I think the common thought is you are supposed to go broke in a set over set situation. The only reason you play a small pair is to hit a set, and take all your opponents' chips. So if you do hit that set and fold, then why the hell were you in there in the first place? BTW, my wife folded a small set in an MTT where I was dealing one of the other tables, when the flop came something like A83 rainbow. Her opponent went all-in, and told her, "I have you covered." She thought that meant he was trying to tell her he had a better hand than she did. My guess was he had something like AK, while she had a set of 3's. :eek: She went out of the tourney a couple rounds later, and told me about the hand. I just shook my head and said, "You never fold a set. If he's got you beat, you're supposed to go broke." I hope she will remember that lesson for a long time to come. [/QUOTE]
