Trips on a connected board...

[tminus]

This table was super loose and I was playing tight

The board is scary and he checked so I pushed. He may have AT or even T9 and a pot bet is most of my chips. What do you think ?

I think it's a good push. Considering the raise that they called preflop there are a lot of hands you beat that will call whatever you bet, so you should make it the max. I would certainly bet at least 400.

Good push.

[Benholio]

Pushing is okay, but I might have bet less to increase the chances of getting called. There is no way I am going to fold, so I might as well try to extract the maximum for the times that I do win. I think either way, as long as all of your chips go in by the turn, it is fine.

Beholio,

I think betting less here looks more suspicious than shoving in which looks like I don't want called. Just IMO though.

[lastchance]

You've got top set. I really think you want to be called here, but that board is 00ber-scary, and the pot's huge, so I like your play.

one of my downfalls is assuming the worst and you have a good point
