Hero (SB): $2 (100 bb)
BB: $2.04 (102 bb)
UTG: $3.84 (192 bb)
MP: $1.53 (76.5 bb)
CO: $2.11 (105.5 bb)
BTN: $2 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 3 3
UTG calls $0.02, 2 folds, BTN calls $0.02, Hero completes, BB checks

Flop: ($0.08) 2 T 3 (4 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG checks, BTN bets $0.05, Hero calls $0.05, BB folds, UTG calls $0.05

Turn: ($0.23) 5 (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, BTN bets $0.16, Hero?

BTN is 17/9 with low aggression freq 22

Hero hits set on the flop, but on the worst texture imaginable. Goal is to keep the pot small and see the river or else protect the hand against single card draws with a flop b/f. Decide to check and keep the pot small The 5 on the turn also completes a straight draw of A4. My set is starting to become pretty weak. Think calling the river and x/f the river is fine here. Folding the turn seems to soon.

While doing this analysis I think x/r the flop would have been the cheepest/best way of finding out what I could be up against. Any opinions?

there are worse textures, like 345mono

raising flop is fine, you beat 22 and he's not folding a pair with a heart. ofc there are better boards but only better hands are TT and flushes, still raising turn, A4 and 55 are unlikely given info.

Thx Tomaloc,

When running in to serious resistance like 3bet on turn or flop (depending on where I raise) on Micro stakes it's time to leave the hand, right?

On higher limits this might not be the case I guess
