Stacking w/ KK

    Default Stacking w/ KK

    Villain is 39/15 and he's a tricky player willing to make moves. We've had exchanges in the past. He's willing to call raises with a wide range but he knows I'll lay my hand down if not strong enough. Only thing to worry about is a set as 58 and 53 seem like a stretch.

    Call or fold?

    Well, I know the results of the hand so I can't say. But, I'd be pretty hard-pressed to call here. Also, I think you should at least 3-4x the $15 bet into you, not minraise.

    Whats the point of you hiding your identity but not mine? lol

    I call the flop bet quite often, I want to play a turn. Even if one pair is good, you're facing a hand that's drawing very live.

    I didn't know you were Villain. I would use the convertor but it doesn't work for HHs sent to my email. I'm also not a fan of huge card images when reading from work. You ran into some tough ones last night. At one point I was going to switch seats at the table to eliminate your position advantage but it filled up before I could do so. Anyway, I love/hate being in hands with you because it forces me to make some decisions and moves post flop.

    About the hand...If the board wasn't so draw heavy I may lay that down (unlikely) but knowing you will make a move like this with a draw and/or an overpair I took a shot. You must put me on an overpair or AK/AQ here so you know the flop doesn't help me. The other guy complicates things. It seems odd you would check a set with the intention of pushing over any bet vs. two people on this board...although it's not that bad of a line if you think you can get a bet and a caller. I thought you were aware that I can't lay down an overpair. So you only fold out AK/AQ.

    Since we have some hands vs. eachother, can you let me know what you think of my play in general? Am I easy to read? PM me if you want to discuss back and forth.

    Jeff is KingCodeRed and he folded pre-flop in the hand.

    Glad I wrote all that. How come there is no Emoticon w/ a helmet? This is the closest I could come to corky.

    Well, I'm still looking for Fnord at one of my tables, then its time to get it on (I'm sure his screenname is ironically similar to one's he has had in his past...)

    I was at that table for one reason, and taht was the dude to my left, although this was before my own triple up.
