Default Re: Ever OK to slow-play trips?

depending on my kicker/position/opponents, i'll sometimes play open trips passively...that is checking and calling. it's really not that great of a hand cause usually the only time you get action is when you're behind. it's too easy for someone to (correctly) put you on a hand that beats them and fold.

playing it passively is not the same as slowplaying since you think you're ahead when you slowplay. you play passively when your hand is mediocre and you want to exercise some pot control.
