8 3 off lol

gotta love starting out an S&G this way. Would of been more aggressive but since it was only the 2nd hand and with 2 others in the hand I was afraid of someone having a 3 and out kicking me. Still a nice pay off.

Thank you for betting the flop. I see too many people try to slowplay trips with weak kickers and lose the hand, and cry badbeat. This way you made more money too because the person with the J puts you on a pair of 9s most likely, and you milked him for a quite a few more chips.

I like the flop play too.

Gotta bet more on the river (at least 240) or try to check/raise. I don't think a typical PokerSharks passive player raises a worse hand once you bet out 100. They'll take the cheap showdown with big pairish hands.

I should have bet more on the river but with the guy having j raise my bet on the turn and the next guy calling scared me a bit.

What a rock ... talk about an easy fold on the turn, with a rather big bet and raise in front of him.
