Effective stacks are $5200. I have 12k after just being caught bluffing 2 hands earlier. We are 7 handed as two guys are either smoking or taking a leak. BB is a player who bought in for 3k and built his stack a bit.

Middle (8k) opens for $200. 1 call. I raise in cutoff to 1k with KhKd. SB folds. BB calls. Opener and cold caller fold. Pot is $2400.

Flop is Ts7h5s and BB ($4200) pushes all in.

Your action?

JJ+, AKspades, maybe top set

against that i think its still a call, i have heard so many ridic. stories of that game (in the sense it is softer than partypoker back in the day) to know that this isnt one of those "he always has AA" spots

I called and turned a set of Kings. On the showdown he said "set" and was about to open his hand when I beat him to the punch. I think it's a weird line to take with a set as he has three streets to get all my chips in.

I tanked for a full two minutes and put him on something like AKs, TT+ and just maybe 98s but I highly doubted it. There was no way I was going to fold in this spot but looking him over I just felt he wasn't bluffing.

Pushing with a set is ******ed, and based on playing with some crazy live nits, he was probably worried about spades. LOL @ shoving when you've both got 4.2k left and theres 2.4k in the pot.

Yes but he is missing out on a lot of value by not letting me bluff at it which I would 100% of the time with this board against this player

Well I don't play much live poker-maybe something like 20hrs for the whole year. I played with this guy for about an hour and a half and didn't have any solid reads on him other than he is pretty tight. I don't feel like I could ever get away from this hand with these stack sizes and he just played a set in a non standard way. 2 outers are hella fun especially playing live.
