CO checks, Hero ?

Should have bet more on flop $6-7 would be much better.
Any need to bet this turn?

Bet flop.

[Tawbor]

er, I did.

[corsakh]

Bet more. Bet 6. You want all his stack. The more money you get on the flop, the easier it is to get the rest in. As played I just bet all streets and hope he's got Q or a nine.

I think you raised too much preflop but since the villain called he must have a decent hand.

On the flop I would've bet probably around $5-$6 or so.

On the turn I would've bet about 75% of the pot.

I'm putting him on Jacks here.

[Tawbor]

Yeah I know to bet more on flop.
A lot of draws got there on turn, is checking and calling river bet weak or sensible?

[corsakh]

Weak. Its heads up, trips are the nuts. If they are not, time to reload /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Tawbor]

You play for stacks everytime you flop trips no matter what comes on turn/river?

[corsakh]

No. Only when I am HU and have a good kicker. And I am not playing much attention to draws because I bet close to pot every street. If they suck out, bl. I am happy to do this again because I know I won in this hand.

This is read dependant. Betting smaller amounts in an effort to gain information out of position seems best. I'd probably lead another small probing bet (3-6.00) and see what he does. With all the possibilities in the hand thanks to that turn card, I'd try to keep the pot small.
