Hero checks, BB checks, MP1 checks.

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">

BB has Qc 9h (full house, queens full of nines).

I've seen people over play trips many times at this level, and I have no read whatsoever, as this is my 2nd hand at the table. Thoughts on the overall play?

Default Re: Tough river call

if you are going to bet the river, you need to fold to the huge raise. you can also try check-calling the river, because you invite a bluff and trips will likely bet anyway. getting allin here is not what i wanna do against a totally random player. then again, i dont play this limit so if you see this move with trips more often than a boat it's a good play.
