With your disguised hand he could easily have 2 pair in this spot i think. I'd get the bet in.

Fire away. You played your hand to put yourself in this spot.

Did you miss the fact that frappe popped him on two previous streets?

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

You've told this guy that you have a set, and he's told you that he doesn't care. Unless he's a loose cannon, I think you can only call on the river.

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

this is like the reverse trifecta in hold'em. when you checkraise 5th and pop 6th you pretty much announced your hand and he doesn't seem to care (or understand) on 7th. for the most part i give the opponent a little more credit than being a total retard, so i just call here.

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

Hi Frappe,

I think that against just about any type of player I call here. Villain does not seem particularly distressed by your raises and I have trouble putting him on a hand.
Upon seeing his bet on the river, I'g get the sinking feeling and guess he made 555QQ and had xQQ as starters. Or maybe he made a flush but I would not have put him on this after the 6th st bet.

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

He says he can beat K's up,which means he can beat 888,too.Call & hope that he's a stone cold idiot.

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

I'd pop 7th most of the time here. Esp catching his Q as protection. You gotta figure your trips are good here. JMO

Re: Rolled 8s, RIVER??
 

Just calling is best. You told him you had his queens-up beat on 6th st and he's still firing. Not weak-tight in my book.
