    Default 50NL: flop trips with bad kicker

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB ($28.85)
    Hero ($53.85)
    UTG ($27.75)
    MP1 ($34.40)
    MP2 ($35.25)
    CO ($26.50)
    Button ($47.95)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with K, 7.
    1 fold, MP1 calls $0.50, 2 folds, Button calls $0.50, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($2) T, K, K (4 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $1.4, MP1 calls $1.40, Button folds, SB folds.

    Turn: ($4.80) 3 (2 players)
    Hero checks, MP1 bets $3, Hero calls $3.

    River: ($10.80) 6 (2 players)
    Hero checks, MP1 bets $10, Hero ???

    I always have a trouble dealing with these hands (i.e. high trips with no kicker).
    villain was 18/4.6/0.8
    Can you call the river bet? The trouble is that a pair of Ts would not bet the turn and river ... however, the probability of him having a K is low ...

    bet pot on flop, bet turn. river bet dependant on what opp has done on flop and turn vs you

    I think this (the river call) is a lot closer than everyone else has made it out to be. I'm torn between a lot of lines on the turn

    b/c
    b/f
    c/c
    c/r

    B/c seems spewy, b/f seems exploitable, c/c seems nitty, c/r seems iffy. The bet size on the turn is debatable as well. Is this a big-pot hand or a small-pot hand, it would seem to be the former however against these stats I certainly do not want to get played back at.

    This goal is to figure out a line that loses the least when behind and wins the most while ahead (ld0)

    c/c is easily best. i be surprised if opp has less than a K therefore c/r is spew. b/f or b/c are poor since we cant stand a shove (well normally but ive noticed opp hasnt a full stack) so c/c IMHO
