45o in BB flops trips

[AFchung]

This felt like a really gross fold. Villain is 47/0 over 19 hands

How was the fold? If he bets pot are we calling? What about 2/3rds?

I'd bet $8 on river. As soon as he overpots I'm folding since fish + overbets = nuts.

bet/fold river please, $8.5 is good.

I have no idea why you check the river.

[Airles™]

You've controlled the pot on the flop and turn, so why the river check? I'd throw out another bet here. Villain has cold-called 2 streets so calling a 3rd bet on the river, whether it's a blocking bet or not, is not out of the realm for him. Checking the river just looks live you've given up on a blind war.

c/f river

what is with everyone's fascination with betting these flush cards lately, seems like every thread I open we're betting some semi-strong made hand when an obvious flush draw comes in. I see zero value in betting the river.

Also, I don't mind trying to c/r flop but I'd rather just lead b/c I'll be donking air with a decent frequency on these board textures.

I think blocking river is better because he has lots of hands that will still call

so if we make it $4 he will not fold a T or a K or a pocket pair
and we're snapfolding to a minraise

Because he's a shortstack, he open limped from the button, and he has 47% vpip.
He's limping ~1326 combos there, and will continue with a shitload of crap that is not a flushdraw. There is no way in hell that most of his range has you beat on the river.

Exactly what I was thinking. And as someone else said, snapfold to a minraise.

As this hand lies it seems to me that the other blind spike a 10 on the flop and a flush draw/2p on the turn. Possibly a pocket pair (based on his passive play style).

What do you guys feel about reraise to 6 on the flop?
