Trips on the flop

I'm not sure if this situation occurs enough to even warrant a discussion, but how do you deal with a flop of, say, trip sevens if you're not holding a face?
I didn't put a specific hand because I'm searching for a more general answer

Am I holding a 7? lol

Seriously, this depends on a whole bunch of factors including table, position, preflop action, postflop betting and how high the face card is.

The most general response I can come up with is to check/fold and laugh as someone with an ace get pimped by someome who limped in with 66. OR as I watched yesterday, watch KK bet preflop, flop, and shove turn only to lose at the end. Not to a 7, but to someone with A-5 who won when the case 7 hit the river. lol
