Trips just aren't worth playing such a big pot in a limped pot. Someone has you beat.
Preflop, I dont usually limp hereat all. I possibly thought the Ace was suited at that time, or some random moment where I was constantly limping, and looking for an opportunity. I cannot recall the details, as I only dug this up during a post session analysis.

Flop I overcall since either I get it in multiway, and the shortstack cannot reopen the bettinng.

On the turn, of course I'm beat. That is beyond doubt.
I do have the equity to call and fill up, but why not semibluff ad pick off a free $29.

Villians bet seems weak, and he probably had the bare nuts on the flop. The shove is a bluff.

Or i could be up against a lower set and get it in good. That would make this a value bet. Weird I never thought I'd say this. value bet and bluff at the same time.

Atleast in my mind I was clear I was bluffing. The value part is just a retrospective thought process.

On a SHSIAM scale of 1-10, where does the turn play rate?
