Dont coldcall 2 bets with trash, you really need the implied odds on these hands.

What about MPs play makes you not want to 3bet the river ?

I think you played the hand perfectly ... except I bet out on the river. If he raises, I just call.

The thought that he could have been one of the players staying in with an overpair (QQ) and just rivered me. In the heat of battle I think I mistakenly thought he had been one of the previous aggressors (there were three: button, UTG, and UTG+1 had all raised and bet in this monster pot), hence being able to put him on QQ. After all this action, why would he raise the river without it? I was declaring I had the trip threes, so he better have something good.

I would think the implied odds PF for two low suited cards gets canceled out by the times your flush hits but gets beat by a higher one. You lose a lot of money in these instances.

Of course, when you hit trips with a hand like this the implied odds are greater. But PF you're expecting a flush or a straight.
