[ QUOTE ]
if you raised the flop and he reraise you wouldnt it be pretty easy to put him on an ace?


[/ QUOTE ] That was not what happened. MP1 open-raises and hero re-raises, and MP1 flat calls. MP1 is obviously an aggressive guy, raising more than once per orbit, sitting on a decent stack and would be expected to open from MP with a wide range of hands.

His flop bet could be made with any pair, any flush draw, even a str8 draw. Unless MP1 sees it as a trivial matter getting the last of hero's chips in I'd lean towards that he did not flop trips. I'd guess there's a 2:1 chance MP1's not ahead at this point.

I'd also say, that if we knew he was ahead hero should fold here. In limit where FE is not a factor I believe you can still recover with close to 3 BB, and the pot odds for hitting a third Q or runner-runner str8 are just not there.

Best,
