Hi all,

So I flopped a set of 10's in a multiway pot with three other opponents on a rainbow flop with two overcards. Happy days. Action is checked around to me and I make a value bet for just over 1/2 the pot. The pre flop raiser who is behind me in UTG+1 calls and everybody else folds. At this point I think that he could be calling with top pair, J10+ or any queen to give him an OESD. I am however beat by JJ, KK or QA which I fell are all in his range as pre flop raiser, however his check on the flop makes me feel a little better. Turn comes and it doesn't change anything with 6d, so I make another bet this time 2/3 of the pot. He calls and river comes 8s. I make a final bet of nearly a full pot and villain folds. I suspect that he had a queen and was looking for a straight, or maybe even an ace and playing a bit fishy.

Could I have played this any differently? Did I bet flop/turn too aggressively with the potential straight out there. Also could I have got more value on the river with a smaller bet? Id love to hear your thoughts.

Bet more on the flop so you have easier shove on the river.

The will never fold or the will fold to every bet there one the flop. There is no in between I think.

It is a dangerous board and you bet multiway so you should have good fold equity. So it might be true that they either have something good that calls or they fold. I like the idea of sizing up the bets a bit to have a smaller river shove. But as played I think this is fine and I wouldn't start sizing the river bet down and leave just a few blinds behind.

That seems to be a mild form of masochism ;-) There are Q in the range of each of your opponents, with 8 outs for the straight. Each A has a gutshot, each 9 has a gutshot, 97s has a double gutshot. You can hope for AJ, AK, because if they hit trips, they will go broke against your full. But the straight outs AR a problem. Against one opponent, you can ignore it. Multiway, they are a threat. So you WANT some folds otf. I would bet at least 12 bb, perhaps up to 15.
