Thoughts on how to play top set in three way pot

hamster880

Hi

I think i slowplayed this badly as i allowed the one of my opponents to hit is flush on the river.. I knew i was against an overpair, and thought the other guy was on a draw. You guys think i should have just shoved on the flop. How would you play such a strong hand against two opponents.

Defo raise the flop after a pot bet and call. Turn is fine.

raise pre instead of limping with 99

Any reads on villains? They are important for your flop decision
 
I probably raise flop, but I dont mind the call as it keeps both villains in and apart from T8 no hand has more than 4 outs against you. In my experience though people stack lighter on flop than turn (dont know if this applies at 10NL on sky), and a high card might kill some action from overpairs. Also the pot size cbet looks strong 3way, so I think raising flop is probably slightly better

Getting it in on turn is fine, nh, ul you are about 70% favourite on turn to triple up

id slowplay flop with 99, much rather raise when we have 22/77 although id slowplay them still some times.
but with 99 its hard for villains to have top pair and call the raise unless they have an overpair and were prob gonna stack their overpairs whatever happens

raise pre
