Scared money with flopped trips on two-tone board facing a hot rock and 1 SPR...

1/3, $500 max, 9 handed, $700-$800 effective. It's early evening on a Sunday, with a much different cast of characters and a generally calmer game than what I'm used to seeing on Friday/Saturday nights.

V1 - LJ. Middle aged Latino guy, absolute maniac, VPIP >70%, RFI >40%, c-bet >90%, yet <5% 3B and <5% continue vs a 3B. Only redeeming qualities as a player are that he's driving most of the action at the table, and he'll over-fold to post-flop aggression. Haven't seen him show down very many hands, but about half of what he showed down started as pre-flop trash that flopped lucky or was turned into an ambitious bluff that got snapped off, often light.

V2 - HJ. Youngish Asian girl, literally reading a math textbook at the table, super-nit, VPIP <10%, RFI <5%. Mostly playing what appears to be fit-or-fold post-flop.

V3 - BTN. 60-ish white guy, uber-rock. VPIP ~10%-15%, RFI ~5%, been complaining to me and the OMC on his right about the maniac and dying to pick up a hand he can take to war. Hero hasn't seen him play very many hands in the last hour, and has never seen him show down a weak hand. Fairly fit-or-fold post.

Hero - SB. 50-ish white guy, TAG-ish with occasional lapses into LAG-ish. VPIP ~20%-25%, RFI ~10%-15%. Been commiserating with V3 about V1, and let it slip that I noticed V1 c-bets too much and will over-fold to post-flop aggression, admitting I check-raised him on the flop with unsuited disconnected trash from the BB recently (previous orbit), getting him to fold like a lawn chair.

OTTH...

Folds to V1 who makes it $15 in the LJ. V2 in HJ calls. OMC in the CO rage-mucks. V3 on BTN 3B to $75. Hero in SB looks down at AQss.

Hero flat calls, BB folds, V1 and V2 flat call, and we're four to a flop with $300 in the pot, and $600-$700 behind.

FLOP ($300) - KcQcQd.

H x. V1 $100. V2 folds. V3 raises to $300.

Hero?

Maybe it's MUBS, but in game, I tanked, unable to conceive a scenario in which I continued and didn't get stacked. I was seriously regretting that what I told V3 about V1's post-flop tendencies, now that I was stuck trying to figure out if V3 could ever be bluffing, or playing a marginal value hand this way.
