MP2 posts a blind of $0.5. UTG calls, 1 fold, SB completes, Hero checks.Flop: (5 SB) [6h], [Kc], [6d] (5 players)SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, MP1 bets, UTG folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.Turn: (5.50 BB) [2h] (3 players)Hero checks, MP1 checks, MP2 bets, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.River: (11.50 BB) [7c] (3 players)Hero bets, MP1 folds, MP2 calls.Final Pot: 13.50 BBResults in white below: Hero has Jh 6s (three of a kind, sixes). MP2 has 7h Ks (two pair, kings and sevens). Outcome: Hero wins 13.50 BB.

why not go for the 3rd check-raise?? jk. I actually have checkraised someone 3 times in one hand before. Everyone at the table was laughing cause they knew I had the nuts but this guy had no clue.

Definately go for the trizzle on the river.Screw EV, the +anti-tilt laugh value when you get it off is worth way more than one BB.

Why not check it again?MP1 had coldcalled two trying to see a river, maybe he'd try a dumb bluff or something
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.

Lol, I was definitely thinking about doing it. I guess it's very possible that these guys are completely clueless that I could do it again, but I felt like betting out here.

If you want to slow play trips, check/call the flop and check/raise the turn. You're fortunate that one of the fish bet the turn for you.Betting the flop is better though, since one of the dumb fish will probably raise to give you a three bet though.I'm still trying to figure out why MP1 bet the flop and MP2 bet the turn though.

Huh?Isn't poker about getting as much out of your hand as possible?Bet this river everytime.
i saw him at the riverbank. he was breaking bread and giving thanks. with crosses made of pipes and planks. leaned up against the nitrous tanks.
he said take a hit. hold your breath and i'll dunk your head. then when you wake up, you'll be high as hell and born again.
