I've been at this table for a few orbits and haven't really seen much from this guy, he's been pretty conservative and I haven't sene him in any big hands sence I got here..

I figure he could easily have a set here, but anything from KK, QQ and AJ is possible too. Sence I haven't seen him do anything at the table so far I'm leaning towards folding..

What would you do?

I think I call this...most players at this level may play conservatively preflop....but suck postflop. Almost all players would not push trips in on the flop....but would slow-play instead. I would not be suprised if you saw AJ, KJ, KK, QQ, 10-10, 99, 88...I just don't see too many players play trips this fast on the flop. One more thing which I have seen a lot of players do of late...get extremely aggressive with flush draws....this could very well be the case here. Any way about it, call.

My thoughts:

Preflop raise is good, but if such a raise frequently gets 3 callers on this table, cranck it up a notch. At the flop, pot is like $4. He raises $2.5 so this makes it $6.5. So I'd overraise him a bit more than $3.5 here, in general. Not too much though, and is probably minor.

Then he goes all-in.. possible scare tactic, but ignoring that.. JJ/QQ/KK/44/22/AJ. A sort of semi-bluf is also possible, on KJ, AK, A3.. especially if he has clubs. Or a confident TT/99. All things considered, I'd call this any time. You might very well strike out but you have the odds to call. Really annoying situation though I must add.

I agree, I'm not folding AA against this line until I start seeing people do this with sets. People are donk betting into me like every other time I raise preflop, and it seems like they almost always have top pair. IMO that's a terrible way to play top pair but that's what people are doing.

definite call
