    Default trips.. good lay?

    Here I have TJo. Now i think in this instance when you get aggression back at you your usually beat.. what do you think? Looking back I wish I led out on the turn but when he raised pot i ran. If he had the balls to do that with a pair of kings then fair play but in my eyes most the time they also have the Trips.. and with him limping on the button I couldnt see him having a lower kicker than me.

    You are getting almost 3-1 odds for calling, he didn't raise pre flop and at these low games a lot of players will limp in with almost anything. So I would say a Jack with lower kicker is very possible as is a pair of kings.

    I think you've got to call this.

    If you were gonna fold this it should've been anytime except at the river with a $5 call into a $14 pot. Stack sizes would also help here.

    His minraise of your turn bet might have been a feeler to see if you re-reraise him (at which point a weak jack will likely fold). Since you didn't re-reraise (which I don't think I would either) he's thinking his jack is probably good. I think this is a spot where you just call down (since you have position) and hope not to see KK or JQ or better.

    In the second hand you posted you had the balls to call the flop min-raise and then lead out with a decent size turn bet out of position with no kicker. In the first hand you didn't have those kind of balls when not leading out. position = goot
