A similiar question comes when hitting trips on the flop. So I have a quick question. Generally when I hit trips on the flop, I rarely get paid. I'm pretty sure it's that my opponent just doesn't have a second best hand he is will to felt with, but is there a way you guys perfer to play these hands? Say you had AJ and the flop comes JJ8 rainbow. I mean I know it also depends on preflop action (as well as other things), but you can be pretty sure he doesn't have an J and not much else plays. I generally just bet here figuring if he has nothing, then I was getting nothing in anyways, but would it possibly be best to play this really weak trying to induce bluffs?
In most situations i prefer to just lead out. People will sometimes think ur buying a paired flop, and u will get calls from low PPs and floaters w overcards.
The board means a lot, as well as the nr of ppl in the pot and who was the preflop aggressor.
Drawy board, lead out.
Multiway pot, lead out
Ur the PF aggressor, c-bet
Villain is PF aggressor, lead w a probe bet or c/call his c-bet

What i would never do is c/r w trips, as that is the most transparent play
