first of all, please dont post results

play wise, i think your advice was correct - you have to aggressive with boss set, even with a board that scary. just remember that unless he somehow flopped a SF, youre still going to have redraw outs, so theres really no way youre folding this hand here. if he flopped the flush, he flopped the flush.

a hand like top 2 or a smaller set, or even *gasp* TT prob makes the same play there

What he said. I would add to the possible hands your opps might have A x, A9/A6/A5 no diamonds, a pocket pair smaller than 9s, 87 and all sorts of other random shit.

I'm not laying down top set at a $3.40, even with this action in front.
