Sorry if this has already come up loads, but my search function isn t working.
Sets are a realy weak point for me, I almost never see them coming (well unless it s a paired board) but does this scenario sound familiar.
Late in tourney, M's around 8-10, your dealt an Ace and a pretty picture card. And the lag player raises in position. You call, Ace comes on the flop, you check, he bets you shove - oops he has trips.
The last time this happened I was in the blind and if he hadn't had trips my play wasn t that great anyway (A,q - but strategy for a,q is a whole different story.
Anyway what bothered me about it was I just didn't see the set of 7s coming - 2 pair yep maybe, even A,K, so what I was wondering was if there are any giveaways for sets and if anyoe has any tips
