If there's a time to fold a set on the flop, it'd be here. Barring them being donks, you're gonna be behind here. The only time you aren't is this situation right here. Sorry but if you put all 3 of them on a flush draw with a bet, raise, reraise, call, and an all-in, you're insane...
A lot of the time you hear people say stuff like, "the odds of you being set over set are so low that you might as well just get it all in." This makes no sense. If someone shows all the signs of having a higher set than you, you don't say "well set over set only happens 1 out of 20 (or was it 40?) times, so calling is +ev".
At least one of these guys will have a set here so often that calling is actually a bad play. Would I make the fold? I doubt it. But it is definately correct.
It's just bottom set, and every single player in the pot is telling you they have a better hand than you do.
Partake in my bollocks, bloody chav!
