Default Re: But I Have Trip Aces!

I like your flop and turn play. If the turn didn't pair the ace I would just call again, but since it did a couple things happen:

1) It is 50% less likely he holds an ace.
2) If villain does not hold an ace, he knows it is 33% less likely that you hold an ace and will call down more often once the ace pairs.

What was your play if he 3bet the turn?

The river I'm not so sure about. I can't really see what hand he is betting out. I don't think it's too likely that he has a KQ/KJ hand, although KdXd is possible. With those hands, he might be trying to prevent you from checking through with 9x or 2x.

It seems that a lot of time he is either gonna be bet/3betting or bet/folding, with bet/3betting being way more likely. To tell you the truth, his play looks a lot like KK or possibly AK/AQ that just didn't want you to fold on the turn if you were bluffing or free showdown raising.

So I call the river. Since you raised, I think you need to fold to the 3bet if he is reasonable.
