Playing trip 5s with no fear
I played 4-8 Hold'em at the Monte Carlo today. I didn't have much time to play and didn't want to wait and hour to get into a bigger game at the Mirage or Bellagio. It was nice playing at MC again. The hand: Four players limp to me and I limp with 7d5d. The blinds play and 7 players see the flop. The flop is: 8d,5c,5h Everboyd checks to me and I bet. The small blind calls. UTG calls. Three players see the turn. The turn is: 8d,5c,5h,Ks SB checks. UTG bets. I raise. SB folds. UTG calls. What hand do you put UTG on? The river is: 8d,5c,5h,Ks,Jc UTG bets into me again. I raise again. UTG calls. 1. What do you think UTG has? 2. What do you think, UTG thinks I've got? 3. Who wins the pot. |

Re: Playing trip 5s with no fear
I think he has KJ of hearts or diamonds. I think he hopes you have KQ, but now he's not sure, and you win. Good luck, Bob T. |

He has aces!
He turns over AA and after you drag the pot with 5d7d he starts bitching about how he can't beat bad players and proceeds to dump a couple more racks into the game. |

Results
I was sure UTG had a King based on his turn bet/call. And KJ seemed most likely based on his river bet/call. But, it was not to be. 1. UTG had 88 for a flopped full-house. Don't ask me why he didn't bet/check-raise the flop or 3-bet me afterwards. 2. Actually, I can tell you why he never 3-bet me. He said he thought I had KK. Don't ask me why he thought that. 3. Of course, UTG took the pot. I was drawing to a 1-outer the whole time. |

Re: Results
You know you're in a good game when . . . I assume that he lost all his money to you on subsequent hands. |
