tricky trips hand PP $20

[SmileyEH]

I played this one really passively because I didn't feel like there were any draws out there to worry about giving free cards to.

What hands would you put SB and MP2 on given the flop action?

Who raises flop and/or turn?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed)

MP1 (t1175)
MP2 (t660)
MP3 (t675)
CO (t660)
Button (t775)
SB (t1085)
Hero (t800)
UTG (t785)
UTG+1 (t800)
UTG+2 (t585)

I personally would have raised the flop. Trips are always vulnerable. On this flop there are loads dangerous free cards you could be giving: letting an overpair find trips, players drawing to a straight. But more importantly, someone has already shown strength, so there's a good chance you may get all your chips in here.

On the turn, I think it's imperitive to push all-in here. Again, strength has been shown, and that straight possibility is rather more likely. I think I'd be happy to take the pot uncontested here on the turn.
