So how often do you x/r when you flop the *obvious* nuts? And by obvious I mean the board is paired, or perhaps even the board is 888. Probably never right? Because you are basically flashing a huge neon sign saying "i have trips, i have trips, i have trips!" There's very little risk to someone slowplaying trips on a 288 flop as long as it isnt monotone. You would want to keep your range wide and make it look like you could be drawing, or maybe even just playing sheriff with a smaller pair.
For these reasons this is why I advocate 3betting V's x/r. He just shouldnt ever be check raising a big hand here because he runs the risk of making you fold, and why would he want an overpair to fold if he has you smashed? IF he's drawing then we simply cannot let him see the next card without an additional bet. It's not like if we just called and the turn is an offsuit Jack we were gonna be snap folding.
