FTP $22r 6max, stupid river spot

[swede554]

Can't get the hand converter to work for some reason so this is the (somewhat cleaned up) raw HH's. Srry bout that.

I think my flop and turn play is fine given the texture of the flop. Villain had been playing pretty TAG straightforward. Notice the pot is 4-handed on the river. If you advocate a call, are you calling with A9 as well?

I think you have to call.

From the betting so fare you could be behind a boat with 44 or 99 (maybe even 66).

another kind is very unlikely as he didn't raise the turn with a possible flush-draw and 3 opponents.

but beside the fullhouse possibilities there are many more where your trip kings are good.

folding is too weak here imo and raising too risky - therefor i'd call this.

A straightforward TAG limps preflop then just calls a bet on the turn (with two people still behind him) then fires 5K into an 8K pot on the river? I think he's got 44 or 99 quite a bit here if he's any good. This is an easy fold w A9, i think your trip kings have turned into a bluff catcher here. I can't see him getting to this river with another king very often given preflop play, but if he has one, he's got to have you out-kicked as well. If he didn't have a big hand here, he should have been very scared of the two overcalls on the turn. As is, he leads right out into them...scary.

You're beating nothing except the dumbest bluff in the history of poker. I'd bet fold. Well, no, I'd bet-call because I got trips weeeeeee, but you should bet-fold.
