Default Re: Is there a way to get away form this hand?

maybe check-raise after the flop would have been better way, I would throw my 88 away after it.

Why check-raise? Why would you want to push out someone who's drawing to 2 outs against your flopped monster? On the river, the ONLY hands that have you beat are:

2/2
5/8
8/8

You want to try and make as much money off these hands as possible, not push people out because you're scared and only make a piddling when you might be able to get all of your opponents chips.

This post sounds more like a bad beat post than a "how can I get away from flopping trips and rivering a boat" hand.
