I'd put in a good sized raise to like 300. I doubt he bets his trips, and if he raises you, then you can fold I think.

Got a read on him? Without one, I min-raise. Without anything on that flop for him to draw to, it'll scare the [censored] out of him if he doesn't have a king.

I raise - my guess is villain is on a small/mid-pp and thinks you whiffed the flop. They probably c/r the flop or turn if they had a king-- I bring it up to 250-300.

just to add I think his most likely holding here is a mid pocket pair, since you can't call without a K or a high pair.

Call.

If the turn is a blank, either fold to a bet (read dependent and pretty weak), or raise a bet to get information - if he goes back OTT, then you know he has a K, if he folds, then you take the pot.

If he calls - shut off completely IMO

I almost never like the min-raise, and this case is no exception. I don't want to give him any reason to call with his AJ here and spike an A. Put in a good size raise here, fold to a reraise, and be prepared to check behind on the turn if he calls your big flop raise (with the intention of calling a moderate sized bet on the river).

Marwan,

Depending on the skill level of the player this could back fire.

if he 'doesn't' bet with trips, he might think that you don't 'raise' with trips on the flop either and come back over the top of you with 1010, 99 etc, in which case you can lay have to lay it down.

not a fan of the call either, we want him to commit more chips if we are way ahead, build up the pot, plus don't give a free card.. if he's playing a K, our raise should clarify things or at least make us play more cautious.
