Too strong raise with top set ? But i think a lot of bad cards on the turn.

I think top set is the best hand to fast play, it ensures that you stack off with his combodraws/88/44 and go for maximum value. I also think that people rarely raise their top pairs here, and it also weights their range more towards draws and weaker but strong made hands, so you would probably want to charge their draws and cooler their made hands.

Agree with Mbml I would play it the same way. Maybe I would bet smaller sizing.

I’m definitely prepared to stack off here. At NL5, at least, you can get calls from worse sets and even from hands weaker than sets.
