Re: Three pair on flop ... what to do??
As Zehn,
I understand what you are saying and it's probably the the safest route...
but look at that flop again. A 6 10 What could the raiser have? Is it a set of aces? Maybe. Is it likely? I don't think so.
The easiest hand to put the raiser on would be A 2 3.
A nut low draw with the pair of aces.
We aren't playing for half the pot....yet. Are we still drawing? Sure. But I think we have a very good chance to take down this pot.
Ok, if I think I'm ahead here on the high side, should I reraise here? I don't think so. I want the nut lows to come along for the ride as best as possible. A low draw will call one bet cold, but when you get up to 2 bets, they tend to shy away.
Unimproved, I check call this down to the river.
Improved, I check/raise the turn. And bet the river.
