[Closed] AK, trips on the turn

if he's passive he will check turn too i think

That is very possible, but people at this tables like to bluff every time they sense weakness, at least from my experiences. I think he would bet and fold to my raise. But I would hate getting outdrawn by a pocket pair(I know it's unlikely, but it happens to me a lot---- 5-6% probability I think)

why does everybody want to check/raise every turn today ??
just bet for value when you have a hand. the majority of your opponents are idiots with no clue how to play poker so forget the tricky moves and play more straight forward.
why did you think that he will fold ? the second K makes a K in your hand more unlikely so his Q or pocket becomes stronger (from his point of view).

of course a check/raise turn with initiative is possible sometimes and there are situations where it´s quite good but don´t try to make this move no matter what. especially against unknown it´s most of the time better to play straight forward.

Lol ♦, a little irritable are we ♦

Yeah I know that the value bet is ok, but today at this table and every other people beted even if they had nothing when I had checked. It usually ended up with their check on the river and my bet and then they folded. That's why I thought about check/raising hands like this where there are small drawing possibilities and I'm sure I'm ahead.
