Unless you are one of those people who like folding after calling away half their stacks, pushing the flop is much better.

He puts half his chips in on the flop which, if not marries him to the pot at least you can say they're engaged -- and really what more could you ask for at this point in the hand. I don't know how I wouldn't lose all my chips here -- even after I peeked at the results!

Push the flop. And it's not close.

Re: fold trips, when board pairs again??
When you check / call the bet of 500 on the flop, everyone knows you have a 5 anyway. Just push the flop and hope that the spade draws, Qs, or higher pairs will call you. IMO, flat calling the flop accomplishes nothing here anyway. There was enough in the pot on the flop. You should've C/R all in and hoped that someone chased while you were still way ahead.

yeah after thinking on it, I guess trip 5's isn't a monster you want to slow play, just get in and get out as quick as possible.
thanks for the advise guys |

Re: fold trips, when board pairs again??
Nice attempt at sarcasm. Slow playing sucks. You really think flat calling the raise to 500 (from the blinds no less) doesn't just scream "trips"? Me, I'll go all-in and hope the draws chase. There was plenty in that pot and you should've taken it.
You, go ahead an keep slow playing then... see how it works out for ya. Edit: after re-reading your post, maybe you weren't being sarcastic after all. My apologies. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] |

no I wasn't being sarcastic, the flat call I made was a bad slow play attempt on my part.

Re: fold trips, when board pairs again??
I agree with the consensus of pushing the flop. However last night I had J9o from the BB and it came K T Q, turn T river T (yeah, I bet every street), then checked and called an average bet on the river, thought it would be a crying call, but he had a busted flush draw. So it doesn't always follow.
