I think fine as played. You have position on him.. reload and wait for another chance.

BvB I am never folding here...

Re: 25nl flopping trips in the bb
 

I'd fold, but wouldn't feel great about it. This is a hand where I'd have to ask myself, "could I get my money in in a better spot?". Yeah, I could.

Please explain how we find a fold here?

Re: 25nl flopping trips in the bb
 

SB is unlikely to have an overpair here I think unless its a very small one, and I just dont know how you could fold here with such a strong hand, trips with your str draw is very likely ahead even with the SB having such a random hand. He could play this hand the same way with 67, 78, A7. I know its small stakes and bad players overbet their strong hands, but that push screams trying to protect against a flush or straight draw.

I could be way off on this though.

Why call this flop? You've got a massive hand BvB, a villain that looks keen to get it in and you'll hate nearly half the cards in the deck on the turn as either out drawing you or killing action.

nah i fold here.
villain has 5 with a better kicker.

Re: 25nl flopping trips in the bb
 

I think folding here in BvB with trips is ridiculously weak-tight. With a 55/2 villain couldn't he have a pair of 7's just as easily?
