    Default flopped middle set not enough?

    this hand happened early, no read. I can't justify laying it down, given the odds at the moment of decision, but I'm curious to see if any of you can actually get away from it...Both are full stacks

    Ultimate Bet
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $0.25./$0.50.
    6 players
    Converter

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is CO with
    UTG raises to $1.75, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls, 2 folds, BB calls.

    Flop: ($5.5, 3 players)
    BB checks, UTG bets $3.9, Hero calls, BB folds.

    Turn: ($13.3, 2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $4, UTG raises to $10, Hero raises to $28, UTG raises all-in $44.3, Hero calls all-in $44.3.
    Uncalled bets: $44.3 returned to Hero.

    River: ($85.6, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: $101.9)


    Results:
    Final pot: $85.6

    I couldn't get away from it. He has AK/AA/QQ as much as KK. Get it all in.

    Downswinging holla!
    Check/fold flop, is that the advice you're looking for? Stop being so results oriented, running into monster hands is poker, but middle set on such a dry board is an easy place to get your chips in.

    Default lol

    What type of flop are you hoping for? I would be happy that he raised all in not worried. If he did stumble into a set just pay him off and dont feel bad about it.
    Me? I always tell the truth.

    Even when I lie.

    You might want to call the turn c/r. Maybe AA/AK could get away from the 3-bet but not from a river push. Just a thought since you have position.
