$11 NLTRN: Facing a river shove with trips
Can I fold this? My opponent was loose, but I wasn't sure if my opponent was aggressive or passive (probably somewhere in the middle, but this was the 4th or 5th hand so i didn't have much to go on). I really had no idea what to do on this river. I figured my opponent was calling on the flop and turn with something weak, as we had already played one hand where he won a lot of chips after calling with a weak draw on the flop and turn and hitting on the river.

bump. Sorry, maybe this hand is obvious, but I really had no idea what to do on this river (whether to call or fold).

Re: $11 NLTRN: Facing a river shove with trips
His push looks really strong but there's a chance he could do it with a worse ace - also a chance he could have a big heart, missed his draw and is trying to bluff you off. I think it's more likely that you're behind though. Probably more likely he flopped a flush than hit a FH seeing as how he didnt raise to protect on the flop.
Not an easy situation - I think it's a fold but not an easy one. |

Re: $11 NLTRN: Facing a river shove with trips
yeah horrid situation. this is a situation where it is easy if you know your villain, but you might aswell flip a coin vs an unknown. i would not make a read off one hand of them calling with not much. loose passive villains love to slowplay.
i would call, but i think if you are being sensible it is a fold. it is not a bluff often enough and his non bluff range crushes you. well i dont reckon it is a bluff often enough anyway: it is completely illogical as one. |

At first, bet at least 2/3rd pot on the turn.
Like already said, a bluff is really unlikely here. He may do this with a worse ace, however, given you describe him as loose and somewhat passive, its more likely he has a better hand. I'd pitch it. |

Re: $11 NLTRN: Facing a river shove with trips
yeah and what with the 3 and the 4 on the table there are a limited number of worse aces
