Re: Do you lay down JJ here?
FYI.....
Taken from pokerterms.com
Trips and a set are both names for three of a kind, but it helps to differentiate the two when discussing a hand. While some people consider the difference nothing more than semantics, most poker players feel it is important to use the “proper” terms.
Trips is a three of a kind made with one hole card and a pair on the board. A set, on the other hand, uses a pair in the hole and a single card on the board. When detailing a hand history to somebody, if you say you flopped trips when you actually had a pocket pair (and, thus, a set), it can mislead your listener and make the rest of the hand confusing.
Most players are forgiving to novices who use "set" and "trips" interchangeably, as, after all, we were all new to poker at some point, but it is useful to learn the difference between the two terms so that you can use them appropriately.

Re: Do you lay down JJ here?
Since at 95% of people don't know the difference between the two it would not be any more or less clear to them. Plus the first piece of information just about anyone gives when talking about a hand is their hold cards so it is clear how they achieved their three of a kind regardless of if they used the correct terminology or not.
