Re: I fold trips top kicker
I can't understand all the hate for this fold. He has AK a majority of the time and the rest of the time he has AQ/QQ. He is not turning KK into a bluff, he does not have a weaker ace. Dunno how often he needs to have AK for the split for us to call this, but the fold can't be that bad.
Seems like a lot of people only look at the absolute strength of our hand and not the fact that this guy isn't getting to this river with any worse than AK that he will push for value. We split with AK and lose to the rest of his hands. Unless you guys really think he is turning KK/JJ into a bluff and overpot shoving the river.
3 combos of AK, 3 combos of QQ, 3 combos of AQ. Discount AQ a little since he may fold preflop, discount QQ a little since he may fold flop. Still we only win half the pot when he has AK, and ship the whole thing to him when he has one of the other two.
