How to play Trip A in this situation?

danvh · #1 11-16-2004, 12:34 AM

Wanted some advice as to how to play this.

1$ no-limit game.
I raise 5$ preflop with AA is fairly loose game.
2 Calls

Flop A(sp) 10(clb) Q(sp).

I ended up betting the pot and winning. But was not sure about my play. Do you trap with those high draws on the board? Protect hard??

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you

you actually have a set of A's....trip A's is one ace in your hand and 2 A's on the board

Yes discuss this at the small stakes NL. Other than that, you played it correctly. There was a flush and straight draw on board. No way can you let the other players see a free card, or for that matter a cheap card. You can't slow play this time. Maybe on a raggedy flop like A 5 9 rainbow. Then a slowlpay would be best.
