Why no PF raise? Why no post flop raise? HE could have had a pocket pair and hit a set or he could just be sensing weakness and trying to buy the pot. No way to tell now. I think he;s bluffing and would come over the top. But I'm a noob so...

1) Raise him to 200 preflop. This allows you to judge the strength of papa bears hand depending on what he does after you raise. You also find how much The Gog likes his hand. If papa raises you know he has a hand. By the way if papa bear raises you then all in. If you get the chance your all in preflop no matter what.
2) Since you raised to 200 preflop, papa bear is now either folded or all in, you need to raise theGogs bet to pot size in order to determine his hand. If Gogs reraises you then you know he wasn't making a weak steal, he has a hand.

You played it way too passivly, you need to show more aggression. Remember bets & raises = information (ty rondavu).

The way this played out I'm all in when papa raises it. I cant see him playing 2 pair or a set like this, he would slow play it a bit more since its a safe flop. I reckon he has A9, TT, JJ, maybe A4 and hes overbetting a draw.

This is about as bad as you can possibly play two kings. You should call, but honestly I'm rooting for someone to pwn you with 93 so you can find out why not to play this way.

Why no PF raise?

Why no post flop raise?

You played it way too passivly

k thanks for the advice. have been gettin in a bad habit recently of playing aces and kings passively, waiting to trap them on the flop.

DMRCboy wasnt too far off. He had 29 with a 2 on the river to complete his full house.

90% of the time I see AA or KK not raised/reraised preflop, I watch it get busted by some crappy drawing hand.
