Whats up coach.


When posting hands, I recommend using bisonbison's hand converter. You can find it here. (http://www.stompandcrush.com/cgi-bin/hhparser.cgi)

As for your hand, yes you should have raised the flop. If he played back at you on the flop, it should be an easy lay down. If he calls, bet out the turn and river.

If he raises you on the turn or river, it is your own judgement as to stay in the hand or not. Calling down with your AA is a bad move because you have to raise your opponent to see his strength. Don't automatically assume he has a third Q becuase he bet into you on the flop. It is most likely that he has 1010 JJ KK or AA if he does this.

Most players won't bet flopped trips on the flop, so I'm not terribly worried about them from the bettor and would be more worried about the caller in general. Once the caller folds on the turn I would feal pretty confident but don't really want my opponent to fold. I think you have some value in raising the river here.

Welcome to the forum. Look at some of the other posts and see how they format the hands. Looking at the raw hand histories is a little hard.

On to the hand....

You're going to show down this hand heads up. So if you raise anywhere your opponent may fold if he doesn't have a Q and will 3-bet you if he does.

Having said that, I think that he would likely go for a turn checkraise if he had a Q, so I think it somewhat unlikely that he has one. Since you don't want to lose him too soon, I think that I would go for a raise on the river here and crying call a 3-bet.
