25NL overpair hand

Postby Thxlbx » Fri Sep 14, 2007 2:31 am

Not quite so concerned with how I played this hand, was looking at this more from the villain's view point. I had put on them on a big pair or AK, and felt I could get their stack with a set. I called the flop since there were no draws, if a flush/straight draw would have been there, I think I would have pushed. My question is about when I have the over pair...I would have probably played it just like the villain did...I seem to struggle with overs on the turn and river. When you make a pot size flop bet and are just called on a flop like that, what is the best action on the turn...push like villain did here, or check...or bet something smaller?
