Maybe you can omit the results the next time or put them in a spoiler, it makes people biased when they can already see what the result of the hand was. Better is to just write: villain pushed river, hero??? in this format. You will generally get better quality responses. That being said, yes 2 diamonds could push on river, but on a 643 board you have to admit that generally any 7 and any 2 are also cards you don't want to see once you put villain on a(ny) draw. Sets would have gotten it in before the river with 99% certainty. Of course he could be on one draw and then suddenly rep the other once that one completes, but I haven't seen that this much at these stakes. I think you played it well, raised flop pot turn but what I learnt from PLO especially is being able to look at every street at a street-by-street basis, and with that river card, the action so far and the push on river, it is definitely a time to re-assess and not a time to insta-call (because you have a set, already invested so much, opponent must be bluffing etc.)

I agree with what you said here, especially about hiding results:f_biggrin:, the last thing you said, about insta calling, I didn't, I tried to weigh up, the value range and the bluff range, in the moment when the pressure is on, its harder to calculate accurately, since it is a new concept to me and I need to master it better. It wasn't until afterwards, when I done some analysing I noticed that is is a spot that is unprofitable to bluff catch, It is a weakness in my game I am trying to fix, I have folded about 5 of these spots since though :f_thumbsup:

Totally agree on not showing results. Even after all comments are made.
I know it is hard to fold a set but here we have to.
