Brand new player here (although I registered the account years ago). I had just sat down at the table and villain was 45/45 after 10 hands and seemed like an aggro rec player. Should I just call the re-raise Post Flop? I think jamming was incorrect because three 8s will be the best hand a majority of the time that I don't need to take the pot down right away.

Yatahay Network - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 115.5 BB
BB: 136 BB
UTG: 101.5 BB
Hero (CO): 106.5 BB
BTN: 145.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 8

fold, Hero raises to 2.5 BB, fold, SB calls 2 BB, BB raises to 10 BB, Hero calls 7.5 BB, SB calls 7.5 BB

Flop: (30 BB, 3 players) K

SB checks, BB bets 22.5 BB, Hero raises to 96.5 BB and is all-in, fold, fold

Hero wins 71.5 BB

I like raising when I flop a set on these types of boards for two reasons:

Villain might put you on a Flush or a straight draw
There are a lot of turn cards that could kill your action

I wouldn't lose any sleep over this one

I would just call; we are not doing that well on this board we only have 1 of the sets and only 3 combos of 2 pairs; also by calling we are more likely to keep the weak SB in. But it's kind of meh whatever both will be +EV I just think call will be slightly better
