SB vs BB, TP + FD vs aggro 5xc8

First hand against BB, no reads. Call on turn ok in vacuum? River with trips was an interesting card with his overbet, how often would this be busted NFD?

Turn call seems fine. You beat bluffs and can improve to the second nuts, nothing much else to say there.

River looks like a fold. Most players just aren't bluffing this spot often enough, and you hold a blocker to his flush draws. Can't fault a calldown too much though because you do have a very good bluff catcher when you block KQ K8 K3.

Do you think it's relevant that we block Kxdd that might shove worse for value or this just never Kxdd trips?

Mildly relevant, it certainly doesn't help matters.

I think you're right in that there aren't enough thinking players at this level for this to be a bluff/play often enough. Very tempting call though given a couple of turned draws on his range busted
