    Default KK with A both on flop and turn

    I read correctly here and was happy with that, but should I have bet less on the turn? Or was this standard? Bet the flop? How much?

    -------------------------
    NL $20+$2 SnG

    First hand in the game. Blinds at 10/20
    Everyone with $1,500 in chips

    BLINDS
    SB posts $10
    BB posts $20

    PRE-FLOP
    UTG calls $20
    UTG+1 calls $20
    UTG+2 bets $60
    3 folds
    Hero bets $300
    CO calls $300
    SB folds
    BB folds
    UTG folds
    UTG+1 folds
    UTG+2 calls $240.

    FLOP


    UTG+2 checks
    Hero checks
    CO checks

    TURN


    UTG+2 bets $300
    Hero raises $1,200 and is all-in
    CO folds
    UTG+2 folds

    SHOWDOWN
    Hero wins $2,470.

    The second A makes me feel a little better that neither of the villians has on in their hand. Nice play.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    if you read that he doesn't have an ace, why raise the turn? if he does have the ace (which is still possible) you go bust.

    he's not paying you off without the ace, just call and let him bet again on river.

    Good point. That is what I thought as well and why I posted this. The reason I raised is that I didn't want to be drawn out if the third guy called as well and the pot was allready ok. Something dwarfman said in another post.

    flush draw, str8 draw, pair draw?
    Plenty of reasons to raise. I'm OK with either play.

    nice hand.

    The reraise may also fold a weaker A afraid he is outkicked
