Three part HA

Okay, another scenario from the OFC event. Still pretty early (~25 hands in) so no great reads. CraftyItalian was playing a lot of pots and stats were ~65/25.

I know I should've bet preflop, but this guy had been willing to 4bet twice already in the tourney. I really didn't want to get reraised is why I just called. So, the trips are nice on the flop, but the board is about as wet as they get. What do I do here?

Will post more once we get this covered.

I don't understand. If he is 4-betting like crazy, then three-bet and call a shove/fist-pump when he 4-bets. TT is crushing this donkey's range.

Since you kept the pot small, starting making it big. I'd bet 3/4 pot, maybe more.

Mind you, that I had just read a lot of the golden archive stuff and, pre flop, was really looking to hit the flop hard (which I did) and nail him when he cbet the flop.

You don't need to hit really hard, you have him beat badly.

See! This is the reason I'm posting all these hands today. I have a tough time doing what you just did in your last post; putting villain on a range.

I've got HOH vol. 1, and I've been thoroughly reading the Golden Archives trying to wrap my head around this concept. Any suggestions of where I might find something else?
