I think what really influenced my fold was the fact that I've been watching all these Training Videos recently and maybe it means I over-analysed the hand.

Reviewing the hand, flatting pre i think is fine, checking the flop is fine, but maybe I could have check-raised 3bet to say $28 to push out draws and make life easier on the turn for me.

Any stats/reads on the villians?

As you mentioned, I think check-raising the flop is preferred. Bottom set is always a little vulnerable, there is the heart draw, the pot is already big enough to be worth winning right there, and you're not putting yourself to a tough decision on an ugly turn.

As played, I'm not folding bottom set on the turn at this level in fear of a higher set, despite the action, unless I have some stats to tell me one of them is a mega-nit. Without a read, I'm assuming they are muppets and snap-calling.

He posted his bb this hand, meaning he was most likely a new player, and if not, he would have only been there less then an orbit.

This is a high-five all in on the turn, but i probably would have just bet/shoved the flop.

get it in on flop get it in on turn. Which training videos are you watching? This is a fairly bad fold for 100bbs.

Awful fold for 100bb at 50NL

Sure he has 33 a decent amount but they can have draws, AQ, KQ, QT, etc as well

You're only good about half the time so but thats WAY more than enough with the dead money in the pot + the fact that its 3way obviously

I'm sure you're posting it as a brag because one of them had a set or w/e but folding here is super bad unless both villains are massive massive nits
