Trips with good kicker

[DonP]

Not aggressive enough I guess?

I think you need to throw in a three bet on the turn. The odds of you both hitting a strong set aren't very good. I'm guessing he's on a high pair JJ-KK. I wouldn't slowdown on this one.

Sucks that you lost out on 2BBs but without a solid read on button I rarely play it differently than you did.

Being out of position sucks huh?
