Jaded Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I'm well aware I'm probably the only person who plays it, but in case anyone wants to offer an opinion... Background: 15 mins into a tourney, I doubled up first hand when my AA33x beat JJ66x. Haven't really played anything much since that hand, just picking up the odd blind. No major reads on anyone.

robilaruk Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Re: Trip Q's in 5 card draw? i would raise pot as you have an A and a K so it is unlikely he has trips A or K's of course he might have filled his lower trips and you are beat - but I would take that risk - you must at least call IMHO PD - could you have raised more? it would have made post draw play much simpler I think he has you on either a draw (flush/str) or 2 pair, given your on card throwaway - and believes his trips are good - I actually like the one card chuck :) Damo I'm well aware I'm probably the only person who plays it, but in case anyone wants to offer an opinion...

Jimany Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Re: Trip Q's in 5 card draw? If you look at his play, he's discarded 2 cards also, so unless he's made a real loose raise preflop, he's got trips also. Considering you have an A & K in your hand, as robilaruk has said, it's unlikely that he's got a higher set. There is the risk he's filled a boat, but it's a definite call IMO. Nice to see some discussion on the strategy of other games of poker :ok Edit: Also notice you've discarded 1 card, i really like this play, it's potraying 2 pair, so in addition to my comments above; i think a raise is definitely an option.

Jaded Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Re: Trip Q's in 5 card draw? Nice to see most people agree with me here :) I raised - he called - and flipped over sodding triple Ks!! :wall :wall :wall Still think it was the right play though, but was gutted when I saw them :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
