    Default I never figure out how to play these situations

    No reads yet, villain is unknown to me. Something in my gut said he had a set, but like I said villain was unknown and was playing it pretty hard for a set heads up on a basically non scary board ...

    So do I fold, call, raise or unplug my cable modem and get a free showdown? (jk)

    I never figure out how to reply in these situations.. do I just guess what hole cards he has and make some suggestions? Or do I ask? hehe

    Yeh you might wanna tell us what your hand is first.

    Edit: Never mind looked at the whited out area.. pocket kings.. might wanna take that out of the white out area though hehe

    (I read from spinoii that you have KK). I don't put him on a set. I say he thinks you're full of crap (he thinks you have missed AK or something) and is saying so. I push.

    *checks*

    If I had a hammer
    I'd drop in the morning
    I'd drop in the evening..

    I would've played it the same. He's easily making this move with JJ/QQ maybe 99/88 as well.

    It would depend on my recent history and what read (if any I had). If I was playing tight and showed down the goods I would have to fold to this: limp in, call a raise in a multi-way, big raise on the rags. That says set to me. But if I was beating on the guy for the last half hour he MAY be raising it with an overpair. With no reads or obvious image, I would have to put him on the more likely overpair and push.

    agreed with stuck, that $20 reraise looks to me like JJ or QQ coming from someone who wants the hand to end. with KK, that board isn't scary enough for you to try to take down the pot, i would definitely wait to see what the turn is, maybe even the river.
    In answer to your question... it depends...

    sorry i always forget to add in my hole cards to these retarded hand histories but yes it was KK. So I've basically got a shit load of answers. Hmm..
