    Default Trips on the board....

    OK so villan here played AA all wrong and got out of jail. But my question is generally how to play trips on the board with an OK kicker when coming up against resistance. I am never sure when I am trapping and when I am being trapped.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    Button ($52.65)
    SB ($74.95)
    Hero ($48.20)
    UTG ($7.40)
    MP ($65.20)
    CO ($55)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, 3.
    UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, CO calls $0.50, 1 fold, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($2) 3, 3, K (4 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $2, UTG folds, CO calls $2, SB folds.

    Turn: ($6) A (2 players)
    Hero bets $4, CO raises to $8, Hero calls $4.

    River: ($22) 4 (2 players)
    Hero bets $11.5, CO raises to $44.5, Hero calls $26.20 (All-In).

    Final Pot: $104.20

    Results in white below:
    Hero has Jh 3d (three of a kind, threes).
    CO has Ad As (full house, aces full of threes).
    Outcome: CO wins $104.20.

    i would check-river, but this is fine against someone who will overplay TP (something like As5s)
