Trip aces Vs suspected flush is it Ok to fold on river?

[Thirdman]

Hi,

Here is an interesting situation I've just been in

Me:

As Ad

Opponent

Tc Jc

Board

Ac Jd 8c 4c 7s

I was playing aggressively, he was calling my raises and re raising. Should I have folded my Trips if I suspected he may have a flush or should I have paid to see his cards. I suspect the textbook answer would be so see him.

You would get more, as well as unbiased, responses if you do not include results in your posts.

You should show down this hand down since you have a set of aces. He could have two pairs or another set. The only question would be at what point you stop being aggressive.

I just typed out a post about how folding here was bad... that was when I thought there were FOUR clubs on the board. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If you put him on a flush draw I would just call down after the turn was a club. You could have also put him on a double gut shot, which he would have missed.

It would also be nice to know who else was in the pot and how big the pot was. You can't make a habit out of being aggressive and then folding to a scare card because people will use that against you heads up.
