I know its not great raising in this position, but i was doing it because of the limp utg.

When he snap calls the flop i am thinking i am being taken for a mug, either at least tp aks etc. Hence the turn check. I know it looks weak so i am not sure if betting was the right thing?

Also come the river it was a relativly easy fold tbh, although i dont like folding trips!!

Hi Stu24023,

Preflop: I don't mind isolating preflop if the guys behind are not aggrpo.

Postflop: The flop cbet for thin value is fine but on the turn we should continue betting for thin value/protection, especially on that card (78 got there but that's it).

On the river generally people don't overbet bluff so your fold is fine despite having trips. I doubt Tx or pairs bet that big so the fact that you have trips doesn't really matter (you would beat bluffs with 1p as well).
