· I think the preflop call is a mistake. The effective stacks are 100bb. You hit a set roughly 12% of time so you need at least 8:1 and realistically more than that. Stacks aren't deep enough. Even if villain is super aggressive and is doing this with every pair, suited connector and suited ace, what are the chances villain is going to let you get to showdown cheaply when you miss your set oop? The only thing you did right was hit your set 😂
