Re: Step 4: Trips, out of position, no kicker
You gotta keep calling with this hand. You want to let weaker hands give you more chips, which is much more unlikely if you show interest in this hand with an ace on the board. You also minimize your losses if you're up against a stronger ace.
I don't mind folding preflop if Other Guy hasn't been putting in any position raises. Then it's just too likely (to me at least) that you're up against a stronger aces rather than up against a pocket pair (which won't always pay you off when your ace hits). If Other Guy minraises somewhat or quite a bit then calling and playing the flop isn't a bad idea.
