Re: flop trips w draw to higher fullhouse and backdoor 2nd nut low - plo8
What was the thinking of the lead bet on the flop? Nobody without a 9 will pay for the backdoor draw, and anybody with a nine will probably raise you and put you on the defensive. As played, when you made the flat call on flop you telegraphed,and the turn made it super-obv what you had.
A better line for this situation might be as follows
1) check the flop and flat call any bet
2) Pound the turn if a low draw comes multi-way, but if HU don't get too cute with trips but no boat.
3) You're on the river with a smaller pot for a smaller hand.
