I really don't like shoving/betting the turn here.
These are the possible hands I put him on: AK, AQ, AA, KK, QQ, JJ, TT, 99. If he has one of the hands I beat, he's drawing very thin and I'm not that worried about giving a free card since I have the Ad. If he's trapping me with a set then I'm going to call his river bet anyway and probably going broke. Then again, it's going to be real tough to get any value on the river from the hands I beat so maybe a turn push is good simply to end the hand since the pot is decently big at this point.
The thought also crossed my mind that he could have 3-bet me with air since it looks like I'm trying to punish the UTG limper preflop.
Anyway, this is what happened.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)
BB ($116.25)
UTG ($129.45)
MP ($99.40)
CO ($99)
Hero ($127.45)
SB ($12)
Preflop: Hero is Button with K , A .
UTG calls $1, 2 folds, Hero raises to $4, 1 fold, BB raises to $16, UTG folds, Hero calls $12.
Flop: ($33.50) A , T , 5 (2 players)
BB bets $22, Hero calls $22.
Turn: ($77.50) K (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.
River: ($77.50) 7 (2 players)
BB bets $78.25 (All-In), Hero calls $78.25.
Final Pot: $234
Results in white below:
BB has Jc Jh (one pair, jacks).
Hero has Kh Ad (two pair, aces and kings).
Outcome: Hero wins $234.
So I guess if we know he'll shove the river with hands I beat then a turn check is much better but if he won't shove then a turn push is probably better. Of course there's no way of knowing this during the hand.
