Slowplaying a Flop Set in Position

$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com


Stacks:
UTG
($74.70)
UTG+1
($29.40)
CO
($68.25)
Hero
($69.70)
BB
($50.00)

Pre-flop: ($0.5, 5 players) Hero is BTN

UTG raises to $1.5, 2 folds, Hero calls $1.5, BB calls $1

UTG raises and I call on the BTN for set value. BB calls too and we are 3 way. No real reads on UTG or BB.

Flop: ($4.5, 3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $4.5, Hero calls $4.5, BB folds

I flop the nuts. I call hoping to string along BB. Unfortunately, he folds and we are heads up.

Turn: ($13.5, 2 players)
UTG bets $13.5, Hero raises to $32, UTG goes all-in $68.7, Hero calls $31.7

Once UTG bets pot, I know he likes his hand. I reraise about 2.5x and give him room to shove me off my hand. He shoves and I call with 2nd set.

River: ($145.9, 2 players)

Final Pot: $140.90
Hero shows:
UTG shows:

Hero wins $137.9 ( won +$68.2 )
UTG wins $5 ( lost -$69.7 )
BB lost -$1.50

Very nicely played. I like the flat call no the flop as this about the least scary for board ever for your hand. Well played.
