First, he exacts revenge on some old walrus looking guy wearing an Oakland Raiders cap and a WPT jacket. Mute hits trips on the flop, slow plays them for one round and this guy’s pocket pair of queens are cracked and he is stacked. Yes, he did mutter about it for the rest of the night. No he had no clue that Mute checking on a flop with 66x meant that you could bet your life that he had a 6 in his hand.

Actually I led the flop for ~1/2 the pot, pretty standard for flopped trips (or set) OOP. Then called his raise and c-r'd all-in on the turn. No way was walrus-man getting away from an overpair given my image, so might as well let out some rope for him to hang himself with...

I'm impressed that you remember this so well, however your recounting does not really change how obvious it was "given your table image" that you had a monster, precisely because these standard plays were huge underbets for you. To make matters worse for the Walrus, I am pretty sure the flop was 66A, which made your play even more suspicious, and his hand totally vulnerable. I assumed the whole way that he had an Ace and you had a 6.
