50NL So I gotz a draw then I hitz trips... RVR VALUE QUESTION
 

Villain is new to table but in 20 or so hands seems solid. He also has a big stack so I tend to give him credit.

Anyway I am most interested in the river here. I obviously backed into the best hand and I think it is well hidden.

Do I check and try to induce then c/r or is villains range not a great ace and prob going to check behind...

So yea. thanks.

Strait forward value bet of about 3/4 the pot seems to be the most appropriate play due to his range of hands. His range of hands likeley consists of Ax/Jx QT/air. Any other thoughts?

As played bet like 7-8 dollars. I am questioning the turn call here. You obv. seem to be looking for the straight but the 8 turn really kills your implied odds. Any Q or 7 puts a four card straight out and how much do you think that you can extract from villain if it hits? Your calling 4 dollars and pot is small at 9 dollars.

Fire 8, turn is spew, you aren't getting direct odds, and you have absolutely no implied odds.
