Raise more PF, I would make it 180, making the pot 585 on the flop instead.

As played I would bet higher on the flop ~230ish
On the turn it gets ugly, he could donk into you with a wide range of hands, naturally including all the Jx hands, but also PP's and some Kx combinations could still be in the hand. I think a calldown might be the correct play, since it minimizes your loses when he got the J (which I think he got a fair amount of the time with that line)!


I make it 150 preflop, 3bb+1 per limper always in early stages.
On this board I don't think it is that necessary to c-bet so huge, otherwise you isolate yourself against Jx hands which have you smashed.You want to keep 2x hands (unlikely), pocket pairs and even A-high in the hand to give you more value.
On the turn I am often tempted to shove to get it in, because now any Kx hands still in the hand will chip you up, but I am probably wrong on this. :P
The river is super ugly, but there is too much value in the pot to fold so I take a call here. If he donk-shoves the river I fold.


I agree with ged, if the bet was 500 i would fold. But might aswell see what he had for 250 more. And use that information against him. Either he slowplayed trips, or he couldn't lay down his KX on the flop.


pre - 3x + 1bb pre limper = 150

flop - standard cbet 1/2 - 2/3 pot is fine.

i like your turn line. its unlikely he has diamonds, so its unnecessary to bloat the pot against a J.

that river is the worst card in the deck, but you are getting 6:1 on a call and i think he will show up with worse pocket pairs and A high enough to call river.

note: betting more pre would have made it easier to get the money in on the flop or turn, which would have been best.
