TPTK against set-line, except...

Results 1 to 4 of 4

    Default TPTK against set-line, except...

    Villain is loose passive, 50/9 over 30 hands. I have no read for a set for him, but in a multiway pot he led out like 1/4 pot then min-3bet and called a push with top two pair and has min raised the flop with draws twice when in position and heads up so he's probably mini-aggro post flop. I am tag, around 25/16, cbet often, and had tried a 2nd barrell that didn't work out recently too.

    What do you think of turn and river?

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $101.55
    Hero: $100
    SB: $99.50
    BB: $134.35

    Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is Button with K A
    UTG calls, Hero raises to $5, SB folds, BB calls, UTG folds.

    Flop: K 2 5 ($11.5, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $8, BB calls.

    Turn: 3 ($27.5, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $18, BB raises to $36, Hero (thinks a while if he's doing this because he thinks I'm bluffing or weak and has a K, or because he has a set or str8...) calls.

    River: K ($99.5, 2 players)
    BB bets $25, Hero calls. (push remaining $26 instead? it's not like this card really improves me)

    Results:
    Final pot: $149.5

    Is he capable of calling your PF raise and flop bet with 4 6? I'd push this 90% of the time. Only a straight (which is unlikely ) and a boat have you beat.

    Downswinging holla!
    Seems fine, I'd probably shove turn, but the river is a definite value push.

    The turn check raise seemed like such a strong move since I expected him to lead out with top pair. It's one of those times I wasn't sure if he's really strong, or just thought I was making another move for the pot...that made me really unsure what to do. Anyway, villain showed KJ. I should be more ok with playing big pots in spots like this.

    64 would be really surprising, but A4s or 22/55 fits...and I thought more so than KQ/worse.
