CObu 33 set

Hi.

I think calling the raise and check/pushing a blank turn can be better here with bottom set. With 66/55 I prefer just 3betting Flop immediately. This guy doesn't seem that aggro so if you just get it in here, while the play is +EV, it is less +EV vs someone who is not so aggro in raising Flops.

Thanks.

Nice hand?

Yep, I see no reason to push the Turn on the ♥. He would definitely value bet his flush again on the River, and you would lose your stack to 55/66/65s anyway.

He could also be firing thrice with some A:hX or K:hX combos as well.

On a non-pairing ♥ turn you should call and then decide on River whether to call or fold (probably call)
