This is the one hand I never see coming. It's always in the back of my mind but I just refuse to believe that someone could possibly have flopped a set of 2-9's (even though I have done this many times and slowed played it for huge profit).
Example is:
player 1- AsKs
player 2 - 3c 3h
preflop - player 1 raises, player 2 calls.
flop - Ah Kh 3d
(player 1 bets to prevent a flush chaser, player 2 calls or raises. either way, you will most likely still be in the hand).
turn - 6c
(player 1 feels alot better that no flush cards and didn't help if on a straight draw off the flop so player 1 bets even bigger attemption to knock player 2 off any draw. player 2 calls)
river - 9s
(player 1 thinks he has the hand and bets again....player 2 reraises and the thought of trips pops in your head right away and by now you have so many chips in the pot that you have to call.)
I always feel that there is no way to prevent getting slow played on trips when you are attempting to protect your hand from any draws but there must be something that can be done to limit the money lost.
Let me hear everyone's opinion....
