Default Re: river explosion... easy fold?

Yeah exactly right... trips look great for a while, and many times they hold up. But that was the second time I got stung that day, so I will not forget it for a long time. I mean, what are the odds that one guy has KK, the other K4, two fours come on the flop, and a K comes on the river to totally destroy me? 4444 and KKKK between three players on the same hand...snakebit.

The far more important question when you're actually playing the hand is "wtf would 2 people other than me find a reason to reraise and cap this river?", especially since your kicker doesn't even play. It's not easy to fold trips but with 2 people going nuts like this it's nearly always correct to do so as it's nearly impossible to be up against 2 hands you beat.

Believe me, that's one lesson I won't forget.
