Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU (Hero)$1.97:///////;SB$2.17:///////;BB$6.88:///////;MP2$3.61:///////;MP3$2.27:///////;CO$3.06:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with 2:s, 2:d.
2 folds, CO raises to $0.06, Hero raises to $0.21, 2 folds, CO calls $0.15.

Flop: ($0.45) 2:h, 4:d, 5:c (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $0.42, CO raises to $2.85(All-In), Hero calls $1.34(All-In).

Turn: ($5.06) 5:d (2 players)

River: ($5.06) 3:d (2 players)

Final Pot: $5.06.
Results follow:

Hero shows a full-house, twos full of fives(2:s 2:d).
CO shows a full-house, fours full of fives(4:h 4:c).

CO wins with a full-house, fours full of fives(4:h 4:c).

This was right after I started playing Zoom for the first time. I went a bit too aggressive pre-flop with that re-raise. Really a simple call would have done the trick, but being aggressive in Zoom had paid off in previous hands, so I decided to stick with it. Even if I had just called, the final result would have been the same in this case, tho.
Also, only 1 guy got into the hand with me, so the odds of him having flopped a set or had a 36 were kinda low in my mind. And if he had 3 or 6 for his straight draw or a low pair or 2 diamonds for the flush, I tried to make sure he would get bad pot odds to the point of folding. I wanted him to continue with an overpair tho, which was what he had in my mind.
Was this just bad luck, or bad play? Could I have made a better read?

Yeh don't 3b pre, just call. as played cbet around 1/2 pot/barrel turn/shove river.

Unlucky that he had a bigger set, it's only a small part of his range.

All the money was going in anyway when the turn hits. Set over set will always happen, you cannot fold it with only 100bb
