Trips facing massive overbet

Game type: 400 NL
Your image: TAG
Misc notes: Player B has been loose and aggressive
Your hand: A♦7♦

Preflop: Player B limps, you complete the SB and BB checks. Flop hits you with:

A♣3♠A♥

Flop: You check, BB checks and Player B bets $5. You call and the BB folds. Turn brings J♦.

Turn: You check again, Player B bets $15 and you check-raise to $50. Now Player B instantly goes all-in for his remaining $430. It’s a bit under $400 for you to call. Your move?

Fold. Too much. Keep an eye on him and wait for a better spot. I’m guessing he has A-10 or A-9. Doubt he’s pushing that hard with A-rag…unless his other card IS the 3…

I am calling, I can’t let this go with this narrative, perhaps there would be something in a mannerism, or if I got some other type of read on B, maybe I could let it go, but not with just this info. I’m really thinking (maybe its hoping) that the little $5 bet was a feeler, and now he is posturing, I think he has a middle pair.

Hmm… this bet smells fishy but the staff is right. This bet is huge and this guy could hold anything. If he limped pre flop from the cutoff with his playing style that means he has a small pair or a weak ace. This could be anything from A2-AJ or 22-88. My guess is that he has 33. The feeler bet on the flop was to find out if someone has an ace. I’ve seen this play before from this type of player. When a loose agressive player hits a hand and someone plays back at them they way overbet their hand. He could just as easily have AJ or A3. Let it go and whittle this guy away. Let him throw his chips at you and trap him with a stronger hand.

Fold. Give him credit for a better Ace, especially after his agressive turn betting. He pushed b/c he’s convinced you’ll call with any Ace, but you’ll prob. be outkicked.

with your image here a call becomes automatic. If your opponent were a nut id consider a call.

call, your playing a loose aggressive player. he probably threw out a feeler bet but now he hit his jack. if you are playing kickers, you have the middle card so it’s 50:50. i doubt he has the ace though, a blind bet on floping trips? doubtful from a loose aggressive player.

if he had a better ace or a full house he played the hand differently. Call
