    Default Is this the time to fold my set? (50NL)

    Opp is 50/15/1.0 over 95 hands. I have to call the turn in the hope of hitting one of my 10 outs but have to fold the river, right?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($62.65)
    UTG+1 ($24.05)

    MP2 ($68.30)
    MP3 ($11.70)
    CO ($50.25)
    Button ($118.40)
    SB ($10.25)
    BB ($50)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 5, 5.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, Hero calls $0.50, 3 folds, Button calls $0.50, 1 fold, BB checks.

    Flop: ($2.25) 3, 5, 2 (4 players)
    BB bets $2, UTG+1 calls $2, Hero raises to $8, Button calls $8, BB calls $6, UTG+1 folds.

    The ugliest theoretically possible board (and action I might add) for someone holding a set.
    Why are you even thinking about anything else?

    fold. ugly situation with the flush and a straight completed by an A.
    If I had a hammer
    I'd drop in the morning
    I'd drop in the evening..

    The only thing you can beat here is your meat. Fold.

    But the turn call to either fill up or hit quads is fine getting 6:1 is fine given I have 10 outs, isn't it?

    Pure odds (plus implied). Seriously, I can not think of better way to play this. Sure, you can semi bluff raise turn or something like that, but what you get in the long run EV-wise?
    I play it the same.
