1/2 NL online, KdKh in SB, $600 in front of me.

Standard raise to 10.

2 callers: BB ($250) and MP ($100).

Flop Jd 7d 2c.

I check, fairly confident that SB (fairly solid aggressive player but I've seen him make many bad plays over the last few months) will bet, or if not MP might bet. This is a trapping tactic I occasionally use.

Pot $40. SB bets $16. MP folds. I raise $40. He reraises $80.

This is where I should have got away, but there are so many bad players online that in similar situations I have often cleaned someone out - they can have a range of hands like KJ, QJ, AJ, 10 10, flush draw etc, that they can put all their money on.

Anyway I set him in, pretty sure I'm behind, and he had JJJ.

I've been in these situations a few times where on an innocuous flop I have been unable to lay down my KK or AA when the opponent was showing strength. So I've ended up paying off trips. On more dangerous flops I know how to play KK/AA fast but cautiously, knowing someone may well have two pair or a straight etc. I have folded them on many occasions. But if it's a totally innocent flop I just can't seem to put them down.

Anyone experienced the same problem? I guess it partly comes down to knowing the player.
