Bet the river. Cry and call a raise if he hit a straight.

I have no idea what is going on this hand. I think you should bet the river.

I would have re-raised the flop. You have a pair, OESD and backdoor flush. Doesn't get much better than this.

With that in mind, you might have won it on the turn with a bet/raise on the turn.

I would have also led out on the river.

But I'm just a noob don't listen to me. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

fwiw i agree here, raise every street til your shown some resistance.

make sure the converter is in 2+2 instead of FTR in the top left hand corner, im guessing thats what went wrong?

and in online try not to go with feels too much. always remember, if you played this time a hundred thousand times what would be your best play the majority of the time?

i would say the vast majority you are miles ahead on this river.

Fine. 

Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG Bets, Hero raises, BB calls, UTG calls.
Ok we hit trips, Raise is good. 

River: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks.
 Ace falls, What are you scared of? It completes no straights, You have trips, It completes no flushes.... Why not bet? what do you fear they hold? 

Any thoughts?
