Default Flop play when hitting trips in action pot (50 PLO)

Did I play this flop well? I was quite distracted from playing too many other tables, so I felt like I didn't really consider what I wanted to accomplish when I go all-in. If I only called the $18 I think he would probably bet again on the turn and I would get the rest of my money in there. If he has a FD he is not folding anyway, and I will call even if a spade hits, so in that case it doesn't really matter what I do. If he has QQ I will lose all my money no matter what. In the actual case he probably had an overpair, and then I would probably make more money by just calling the $18 and letting him bet again. So, the correct play would have been to call. Agree?

If I raise it preflop, do you think I should check/fold if I don't get a really good flop? If I raise that hand preflop and don't hit good then I have no idea what to do being out of position. I don't raise anything out of position. Is that wrong?

I'm also a bit of a nut peddler and only like to play when I have a made hand. It seems to work well on 50 PL and also 100 PL the times I've played that.

if you plan on repop when action comes back to you), you have to repop when Button raises. Then you probably get the pot HU vs Button,

is this often the case on stars and FT? (where i play a reraise is like a cold call magnet, where the callers will shove any Aceless flop they have a 2pair+ or a decent draw to crack your obv. aces)

I dont think it is smart to reraise preflop. Although stacksizes matter here. If villain has less that 40 BB, I think it is ok. Playing 100 BB, I often call reraises, getting the money in on a good flop, or on players for whom I know are able to fold naked aces to a big raise on the flop.

As played, I am more worried abour q8 or qq, but if you decide none of them has that, then shove. Although I'll fold a lot of time in this spot.

The flop is definitely not a fold. On these tables at least.

Why? you have a bet and a raise in front, you have no way of knowing the raiser will fold.

take a look of the following, which I find are not hands out of the peoples ranges, and this is not the scenario where you are trailing badly.

As Ac Tc 8c 167 25.08 436 65.47 63 9.46 0.298
Ts 9s 8d 5d 220 33.03 383 57.51 63 9.46 0.378
Ks Js Qc Kh 216 32.43 450 67.57 0 0.00 0.324

Even though both have spades you do not have enough equity. Without reads I'll seroiusly consider letting it go, you have only invested around 3$

Uhm, if he calls my raise a lot of the money is not in the 3-way. The reason I don't have highest win % in that hand is that you gave that guy a T. I do think your scenario is a little bit pessimistic.

True... but youll have a hard time getting more than 38 three ways. Then you have to take in the the times you are highly dominated (q8 qq), which would not surprise me, if that were around 20 percent of the time...
