    Default Flop blocking bet with KK

    Villain is kinda loose and kinda passive. He probably doesn't raise enough. I haven't played with him enough to know what his reraising range is, but I would have to assume its small.

    Well you probably have to put him on QQ+ without any other reads... which means you are beating nadah.

    yeah, against someone you don't know that well why wouldn't you just get it all in preflop with the 2nd nuts?

    you mean fourbet? because it would blow him off the portion of his range that I have beat, and it would commit me to getting stacked on a favorable flop like this one from the hands that beat me.

    The stacks are way too deep to go all in there? yeah idk you could 4 bet but then he could just fold QQ and AK.

    Your OOP, you don't have that great of a read on your opponent, and there is possibility of another person calling. You don't really know his reraising range, as you said before.

    I don't want to have to make a hard flop decision here... and i want to be isolated. I'd way rather 4-bet to 60 or 70, eliminating crookedhat99 and commiting myself on the flop. You aren't going to get much money from the hands in your range he's beating anyway. AK and AQ is going to fold to your bet most flops. JJ and TT will also play passive and weak to overcard flops.
