Trips

Villain is loose-passive, passive. I'm mostly wondering if my play on the turn is correct.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
4 folds, MP3 calls, 2 folds, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, MP3 calls.

Turn: (2.50 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 raises, Hero calls.

River: (6.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 8.50 BB

Result:
Villain had AJ

Too weak. You almost always have the best hand here, the villian obviously got excited by spiking an Ace, and you got scared by one raise.

I like playing against players like you, you're easy to bully and get cheaper showdowns with.

3-bet the turn, lead the river, call a river raise.

Agreed -
Think about what your thought process would've been if you had K8 instead of K10. After his turn raise you'd think "Damnit, he caught his Ace. If only I had a 10 for trips instead of this 2 pair I could 3-bet his arse". Well, this time you've got the trips so 3-bet his arse.

Arse? I thought this was an all-ages forum.

3bet the turn. You're only behind AT, 88, and AA. If you get capped, then you might want to slow down.

I'de like to 3 bet the turn here, There are not a lot of hands that beat you. If capped, check call down.

You can't let a raise put you into call down mode. Trips is a great hand. If he caps, then raises on the river, I'd probably just call, but other than that you need to be more aggressive.

wtf is the point of playing KT if you play it like that. Trips are the prom queen and you are the nerd in the corner shying away. Don't be timid, make out with her
