SIGH

I just lose so amazingly well these days, I have tried to increase my VSIP based on position. But because I still catch no cards what so EVER this is what I am left with.

SETS ON MONOTONE FLOPS IN A RAISED POT IS THE ONLY SETS I CATCH NOW.

Am I still f&%* these up as well?

All the advise about folding here is not good at all, IMO. Sorry guys, I am ready to argue here.

You get very good board for your sets, yeah, in a raised pot it's the action board. Put the money in with both hands and don't think twice after. You'll see so many draws, retarded TP, etc, that it will well worth it in the long run. Moreover you are not in that bad a shape if someone has flush, you have about 30% to fill up, which is quite a lot. I also think that those suggesting a fold forget that there is much more possible draws than made hands that beat you.

You played both hands fine and I play it the same.

When I said that he was lucky, I don't mean that he's lucky SB could fold a set, I'm saying that he was lucky SB's a goofball.
