trip fives

[Diplomat]

UTG has about 250, I have about 130, and the button has about 90.

I am in the 2-dollar big blind with K /images/graemlins/spade.gif5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif. UTG limps, folded to the button who raises to 4, I call, UTG calls.

The flop is 5 /images/graemlins/heart.gif5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif. Checked to the button who bets 6. I call, utg calls.

The turn is the Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif. I bet 15. UTG ponders for a moment, then folds. The button takes about 10 seconds to act, then calls.

The river is the J /images/graemlins/heart.gif. I check with the intention of putting the button all-in.

Comments?

Diplomat,
Why didn't you CR the flop and bet larger on the turn? When you check to the button on the end what hand would he just call with on the turn and then bet when checked to on the river (and that you still beat)?
Thanks,
Adam
