This morning I lost a tournament by slow playing trips I'd hit as BB that then got flushed. The lesson was I should be more aggressive. Tonight again as BB a similar hand happened and I hit the straight on the Turn. Since UTG was betting my intention was to Check to UTG and re-raise by Pushing thus drawing him in, at least with his bet even if he folded to my Push.
Instead it worked out better than I could have hoped for as UTG bet, SB pushed then I pushed. SB was chasing and missed.
Although it worked on this time, would you slow play it with a Check/Re-Raise with a Push on the Turn in this situation? Or is it too risky that there could instead be Checked down and a Flush drawn on the River?
