$5 NL HE Full Ring: Got shoved on the river while holding a set. Any suggestions
I was reviewing some of July's hands. This hand really seemed to piss me off. Can't get this out of my head. Quite desperate to know what my villain had. This was unusual case where I have folded a set. I believe I made a mistake on the turn by checking. I tried to induce bluff by checking on the turn, which backfired when the villain checked back to see the river card. On the river, I tried to bet out and get some value out of my set until villain just shoved against me. My range on him was he either had AK who was going for a draw but ended up having a straight or he flopped it from the start. Set on the flop is good majority of the time and even if he flopped a flush, I would still have good showdown equity of 33% to pair the board. But on the river, I figured that set is no longer the best possible hand when there's a flush and straight board. Everytime I faced these awkward spots, I would call often and get crushed. Since I didn't knew where I stand with my set, I decided to give benefit of a doubt to my villain and just fold. But when I review this hand again, it just bothers me for some reason. I'm thinking if this could've been a bluff and I made a bad laydown. Anyone have any advices or opinion on this hand? Since this hand was rush, I have no information on the villain since my hem only had 2 hands on him.
