.40 Rush SNG--slowplayed bottom set--wrong move here? .40 Rush SNG--slowplayed bottom set--wrong move here?

I flopped a set here and it looked like a good situation for slowplaying.

My reasoning: I felt I should just flat the raise on the flop b/c making it 3 bets after a min-bet and a min-raise shows lots of strength that would likely kill further action on a board with no draw other than the unlikely gutshot JT, so I felt like I could take it easy. (And if a K did come on the turn I might have been a little more cautious.)

Any opinions on how this one was played on all streets/my reasoning for slowplaying/bet sizing/etc.?

Thnx.

I think you played it just fine. That flop isn't a bad flop to slowplay. No flush draws and you are only up against one other person by turn. I think the bet on the turn was the perfect amount. Villain made a terrible play and got a lucky river.

You played it well, villain on the other hand is donkey and should be welcomed at your table with open arms every time you see him.

Agree with above. Turn call was terrible by oppo and so lucky on river.

Unlucky, you played it fine
