    I'd probably bet the flop, but any situation where he sees the turn you're done, not many people are going to be able to read that, not even the pros, unless he's got some obvious tell.
    Bean181818: some guy came up just grabbed my hand and starting massaging it, since it wasn't you, i told him to fuck off
    xcrunman02: yeah only I can do that, i don't need some gook trying to get with my life partner
    Bean181818: i've been faithful
    xcrunman02: me too
    Bean181818: peck tried to get all this but i told him this was all taken, all of it!

    Not likely he would fold but I am going broke here to. I dont think you made any bad moves except not betting the flop. Seriously, I think this is just a cooler.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    Bet the flop but as played go broke and be happy.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    wont be happy for set over set...

    I am just saying that even If I bet the flop...chances are he would've shoved with an overpair or atleast called a shove.

    destined to go broke.

    Pot-sized bet on the flop 'cos of straight draws. A lot of people would call a preflop raise with 67s.

    As it is, you're probably going broke whatever, he woulda called a preflop bet with an overpair, no question.

    Not a lot to add to post flop comments

    I fold PF though, blinds are still small so you can't win the tournament yet. If you can't fold, limp, you said yourself people are playing ATC so just play for set value

    Amazing how many people, when they lose set over set, post asking if they did anything wrong and could they have gotten away from it. Set over set happens so rarely that its just one of those situations that sucks and you can rarely get away from.
