All-in on a draw

Reply Subscribe
Hey Guys,
I have noticed in the last couple of free-rolls a number of players have put all thier chips in the pot on a straight draw.
I hardly ever do this, but I have been knocked out of at least two free-rolls by players all-in with a draw with me holding trips (after the flop.)

Am I playing too tight folding the draw?
Thanks for any thoughts about playing the straight draw after the flop.

It is a freeroll

you have trips on the flop
tough to lay down - unless it is btm set

top or middle set,
there are alotta cards to come to improve it more

dont lay it down
its a freeroll

Yep. That pretty much sums it up.

Yes, all-in on a straight draw puzzles me. Depending on your stack, all-in on the nut or close to it flush draw is more reasonable.
