I would check fold it down after the flop. If you had held one diamond, I would probably push the flop. But you dont.

Preflop, I would have had a tough decision as to raising 3xBB, pushing or folding. THis is a toughie. My initial answer is push to steal the blinds.

Your bet on the flop was a mistake but otherwise things don't look
too bad. You got a crappy flop.

The only thing wrong with the bet on the flop is the size of the bet. I would never bet less than the amount I raised preflop. Since you don't have enough chips to really play preflop, I would have thought about pushing preflop.

PreFlop the bet was good
Once you got a caller and missed the flop completly I would assume I am behind in the hand.
The range of decent hands to call this kind of raise with are probably AA,KK,QQ,JJ,TT, AK,AQ, Aj, maybe AT, KQ, and maybe 99,88.
So basically your chance of winning the hand is by bluffing, and a less then 1/3 bet will never buy you the pot. I would proably check the flop and fold to any bet

I would check fold it down after the flop. If you had held one diamond, I would probably push the flop. But you dont.

Let's think about the complete hand for a minute. First thing, raising preflop is almost committing you with only 1000 chips and 50/100 blinds. I'd like the raise from the CO or button with no limpers behind but Hump is not really in position. KQs is just not a good hand at all without position.

Postflop really comes down to reads and your table image. If I have a good image at the table (shown down some good stuff, not necessarily tight) and my opponent hasn't been too strong or seem to be gunning for me, I'll push that flop and hope dude doesn't have a diamond. It's a straight up gamble but I think the situation warrants it: a) your AI is a significant portion of opponent's stack, so he's not gonna call for the hell of it, b) if you lay down the hand, even if you double up soon you're barely above where you started at, c) if you push and manage to pick up the pot, you have some breathing room and can wait for another good hand to go in on.

This early, I would fold QKs preflop.
