Flop trips up against a boat

Alot of times I will be either in the BB or SB and have one of my cards trip up on the flop. I belive I have the best hand but at the showdown the other person has a full house. Such as If I have JK the flop will be J5JXX. and He will show 55. Should I keep raising with my trips?

in most cases id say yes, if there goin crazy slow it down on the turn, but its all read dependent and also dependent on the texture of the board as well as many other factors, its really different in each hand

I agree. It happened twice tonight and so I wanted to see if it was a leak in my game or if it happens to everyone on occation and I just got screwed twice tonight. First time i Had K7 flop was K3K and villian had 33. Second time was posted above.

I'd slow down on the turn and river based on my kicker and opponent reads.

However, this cannot be a big leak as it does not happen nearly enough.
