    Default ($27) KK facing likely minraise steal from SB

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button (t1090)
    SB (t1370)
    Hero (t1265)
    UTG (t3295)
    MP1 (t2005)
    MP2 (t2010)
    CO (t2465)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with K, K.
    5 folds, SB raises to t375, Hero ???

    ---

    SB has made a steal like this several times in the past.

    Does anyone flat call here and fastplay the flop, instead of straight pushing?

    Most of the times i would flat call, and when he bets out on flop (very likely) i would push then.

    With his stack I'd definetely push, if his hand was weak he probably would've just went all in from the SB.

    I don't think you can go wrong here. You can reraise, putting half your stack in. It'd be tough for him to fold it. You can flat call and push the flop. Or just push preflop. No matter what, all your chips are probably going in by the flop.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    Call and hide the strength of your hand, and let him hang himself...

    idk that this guys gonna push. He just made a really weak play by limping, why do you think he's going to act strong on the flop?

    He has a small stack, and because they do in the 27$ stars turbo...

    I'd make it about 800 to go. It'll all go in on the flop anyway, that ties him to the pot, and a little more likely will call preflop than a push.
