can't fold.... so that leaves call. I would expect to see 57 a decent number of times.

If you don't go broke to 75 here then you're not playing good poker

Call and watch your set fall to the flopped straight of the BB.Nothing you can do here, I'd call every day and twice on sundays..

yupThe only way you dodge bankruptcy here is through passive, bad poker. This is about as standard a cooler as you can get if he's got 75. It's like sitting with 80 BB apiece and not getting it all-in with KK vs. AA. By the river you're stunned that these hands could make a showdown without their stakes being at stake.On the turn with this hand you should be looking to get the chips in the middle ASAP. Mission accomplished. Now he could have 44, two pair combinations, an overplayed TP, or some whacky hand like T7h. Course he could also have 88 or 75, but those combos happen, and if it does you've still got outs (hopefully to the FH and not four of a kind). You can only get away from this with 1) a sick read, which you do not have and 2) a much deeper stack. Standard 100 bb stacks online don't allow us to get away from sets in spots like this (you're very deep but villain is not).

You're allowed to go broke if that f**kstain is playing 75.You have to call this every single time.And we still have 10 outs on 75 anyway.

In Villain's defense, he checked from the BB

Yeah, but did you see the way he checked? What an ***!

yeah totally

...Hero?

Two pair behaves this way to cut off the draws. AK behaves this way. Straight behaves this way. Call. If villain has straight, you have outs. If villain has two pair, you're a mile ahead. If villain has 888 (likely in this case), oh well.And don't post any "should I have folded my set" hands here. We're all going to say NO.

If this is you, he's got 75 (and you make the boat) or he's got 44 (and you make the boat) or he's got 88 (and you make quads).If this is me, he's got 75 (and I miss my boat) or he's got 44 (and he makes quads) or he's got 88 (and he makes quads).YAY!What I'm getting at is, just stick your money in there.
