Default Re: Ugh... concede or call on the river?

I think the most suspect thing here is your play on the turn. If you were representing TPWK on the flop and want to continue with that, you've now improved to trips and should be putting down a much stronger bet than $2. A full house or trips with strong kicker is likely to raise you back, in which case you can consider abandoning the hand. If you just get a call, then there's still the possibility that someone is slow-playing a made full house. And of course you don't know which club will pair someone's kicker to give them a full house.

Accurate comments. I am pretty new myself (having lurked for several months).

I agree that my mistake was on the turn, but unless he went all in or made a substantial raise, I would have called and gone down the same way.
