Re: Is there a way to get away form this hand?
[ QUOTE ]
My thought so far are like this
I din't check the flop because I never slow play trips if I only hold one of the cards in my hand. I guess I could have bet 5-700 mabey he would have folded the 88 but I think he made a bad call on the flop and made the nuts on the turn. it happens.

I responded w/o seeing responses to your post. This is *very* bad strategy. Heads up, A5 on that board is a monster. There's like 3 hands that beat you. This is slow play city.
If you don't slow play this, you arent playing correctly.
The only exception is if you believe villian is more likely to get suckered in by fast play. Ie you have a read that he won't believe you and will come back all in at you. Generally that's not the case tho, and you want to give villian a chance to draw to a worse hand.
Look at it this way: Villian should have folded to your flop bet and you wouldn't have gotten paid. In online MTTs, you *must* maximize every good hand you get.
