Value extraction with a set, how is this line? (50NL)

    Default Value extraction with a set, how is this line? (50NL)

    Sorry if this is a basic question. Is this the standard line with a flopped set? Opp's stats were 19/7/2.3 over 140 hands. Checking the turn trying to get another bet out of opp is just too suspicious after I re-raise the flop, right?

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

    MP2 ($56.55)
    MP3 ($29.15)
    CO ($10)
    Button ($48)
    Hero ($63.30)
    BB ($19.15)
    UTG ($8.70)
    UTG+1 ($57.15)
    MP1 ($38)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 4, 4.
    3 folds, MP2 raises to $1.5, 3 folds, Hero calls $1.25, 1 fold.

    Flop: ($3.50) 5, K, 4 (2 players)
    Hero bets $1.5, MP2 raises to $3, Hero raises to $9, MP2 calls $6.

    Turn: ($21.50) 8 (2 players)
    Hero bets $15

    Don't lead out on flop so weakly. We get more of his money in faster if we bet a little harder.

    I like over-betting here.

    Drinking your milkshake.
    I understand why we want to lead here with a set, but how are you guys balancing this? What other hands are you leading with? What other hands other than pairs are you calling with preflop here?

    Air, small pairs that missed; into tight players.

    I lead for $3, 3-bet for more and lead turn for more.

    Try Air if you have solid stats against other players with solid stats. You will have pretty sick fold equity.

    And it's more fun to fold air than a draw if they raise.
