No real reads on SB, after an orbit villians played 4 hands and raised 3 of them, gone to showdown each time(AQo, AJo and A5o). MP2's a LAP from 30 hands (50/18/1.39), with increase aggression on later streets (0.6/1.3/3.3).

Flop seems pretty ripe for a check raise.

[chief444]

I'd probably raise the turn.

Why not CR the flop and see if you get 3 bet by a bigger A?

Because you flopped trip aces on a drawless board with a fairly small pot and you really don't mind if your opponents catch up some most of the time. And if there is by some chance (unlikely though) a bigger ace then raising is obviously a mistake.

Why not lead the flop and see if you get raised? I would c/r the turn myself thinking my hand is good most of the time but if you get three bet? Fold or call down?

[MercTec]

I think I'm looking at his whole line and trying to figure out his thinking. I'm not sure if he was afraid of a bigger ace, if he was going for overcalls, or if his planned CR on the turn got screwed up by the SB and he just called because he got flustered

If he was afraid of the bigger A, then I think he has to check raise the flop

[chief444]

It's a 3SB pot. He has trip aces on a rainbow flop. This really isn't a bad time to slowplay. That's all. I doubt if he feared his hand was no good at any point.

[cockandbull]

My thinking in this hand is im good and need to find a way of making the most $$$. I planned to checkraise the flop, but figured i could probably get another couple of bets out of them on the turn so i waited. Sb bet kinda changed the plan, so i went for over calls. I also went for them on the river. Probably should have raised the river, but hey thats why i posted.

I agree that you do need to put a raise in on the river if not the turn. One or the other. I prefer the turn in case SB is betting hearts. But the river would be OK too.

[cockandbull]

I agree i should have raised somewhere, but my guess is the river. As i say i that was one of the reasons i posted as well as the slowplay. Was wondering if i could have made more (over time), but as i happened sb caught a pair on the river so i figure i just got lucky with the way i played it(bar a river raise).

I think a river raise is better than a turn raise.

Yea, you're right Nate. A river raise would be better now that I think about it.
