I take a different line with trips (NL25)

[CalledDownLight]

Ok. No real reads involved here. Villians seem like standard 25/7 type donks that are everywhere at these stakes. Thoughts on the flop were that a lead here looks so transparently like a 7 that its probably not great (although its what I usually do). I decided not to c/r b/c a lot of the time better 7s will 3bet AI, but I can't fold b/c draws might play the same. c/r probably also folds out all overpairs. Turn was a pretty big blank so I decided that now its time for a lead. I think this looks weak to a lot of people so they may hand around with marginal hands. By the river I felt like it was time for straight value so I vbet because these donks pay off with less to my odd line in my mind.

If he shoves whats the plan? thoughts on the way I played it as opposed to either leading 3 streets or c/r flop and bet turn and river,

You check call cause you wanna conceal your 7 but then fire on blank turn. Who are you kidding?

maybe i said it wrong...I just thought other lines fold out all the hands I get value from on the flop. I usually lead and get action like never or when I'm beat.
