ATo trips top kicker vs pf capper

[DavidC]

Okay, the villains in this hand COULD be quite enthusiastic about the game of poker, but I'm not sure. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

CO: 17 hands, 76 vpip, 35 pfr, 1.75 ag
UTG: 12 hands, 42 vpip, 17 pfr, 0 ag

I don't have any other information about them, because I was busy reading Droolie's post on paying attention to the game.

--------------

I have a tendancy to think about playing a hand vs lags in terms of "How many bets do I want to get into the pot?" I come to this decision based on whether villain is just a lag or a true maniac, and on the strength of my hand and my position, the board, and how much strength has been shown preflop by the villain.

Do you guys think I played the turn too aggressive, too passive, or "just right"?

Also, If I had have had more hands (500 hands, say) and identical stats on the UTG raiser, should I have three-bet with ATo, or folded?
