KK in squeezed pot on A high flop.

Results 1 to 9 of 9
  1. #1

    Default KK in squeezed pot on A high flop.

    Villain is 27/21 over 80 hands. I have no stats on how lightly he's calling 3 bets but my image is fairly 3 betty and squeezy on this table.

    I bet flop since it avoids turning my hand face up and can get called by worse especially for this sizing. On the turn though Idk if my sizings induced too many floats to c/f, but I have no idea what else I can do here oop.

    How's my line?


    No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (SB) ($50.25)
    BB ($37.45)
    UTG ($98.30)
    MP ($84.55)
    CO ($51.90)
    Button ($49.15)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with K, K
    1 fold, MP bets $1.50, 1 fold, Button calls $1.50, Hero raises $6.15, 1 fold, MP calls $4.90, 1 fold

    Flop: ($14.80) 7, 9, A (2 players)
    Hero bets $6.50, MP calls $6.50

    Turn: ($27.80) 3 (2 players)
    Hero checks, MP bets $12.50, Hero?

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    I'd c/f, c/r or b/c turn depending on my image and opponent. I usually don't c/c here.

    i'd prefer $8 on the flop so villain will be less inclined to try to fuck with us via floats and w/e. i'd personally be C/Fing this turn but that could well suck.

    Ya it sucks that you don't have more info on the villain. Some people will float a disproportionate chunk of the time here while others are fairly balanced and others never float. Against a relative unknown I would C/F turn.

    I don't think I've ever c/r this board with this particular hand on this board unless its vs a mega whale.

    Why do you prefer c/r over c/c?

    This says alot,its a tough spot he could be floating to do exactly this, turn his missed set or Broadway into a bluff and pickup the pot, I mean I would rather c/r the flop than be stuck in this spot on the turn as it would cost about the same amount of money but give you TONS more info about his hand. As played I fold. and sigh.

    i seriously think bet/folding between $7.5 and $9 is vastly superior to check/raising any size. though i've never really believed betting for information is a valid reason to bet, which it may be in some particular circumstances.
