Default Re: SB hand: calling with trip aces on river

[ QUOTE ]
I would bet the turn and river. As played, I would check/raise the river. UTG isn't folding and BB might reward it with a coldcall.

The way you played it is better if your opponents are decent.

I'm not so concerned about someone being on a draw, as I have TP + the gutshot.

I actually think that this is a nice line vs the typical monkeys playing 1-2, since as long as I let UTG keep the lead, he'll keep betting TP for me. On the off chance that I'm behind on the turn, this saves me a couple bets, while at the same time, I get the benefit of overcalls from BB.

I think I make more from this hand as played than by taking the lead.
