    Default Tough Spot with the Nuts

    Villain is on at least 3 tables, has big stacks on 2 of them. Haven't seen him do anything of note so far.

    the over call on the flop seems kinda scary to me...
    turn seems like a fold since the hands you're crushing (weaker kings) prob dont like this turn card..

    looks like he bet pot so u gotta be good ~ 33% i think? main thing seems to be how often u are ahead in this spot like ud need some sort of read to know if he can be spewy or semibluff in a spot like this to make the call...

    Looks like Kxss or a set,two pair protecting and not wanting to see another spade,to me.

    stove it up!

    His call pre is atrocious, but even if you think he is shoving Ts9x or 9s6x or vice versa it's still a fold.

    Yeah I know, although I suppose i wasnt thinking of how it affected combos of flushes. Nonetheless, there are enough flush combos to make it a fold.

    this is probably a close fold. my first instinct was to fold for sure, since i think people rarely jam KoXs here. that leaves hands like 6s5c and just a ton of flushes. honestly, id expect to get shown a range of flushes/spazzes/str8s mostly. i donno i just always find im crushed here
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum

    Nobody said anything about the flop raise. I don't really get it tbh.

    flop raise is for both protection and value, i don t expect a hand-reading reg to fold KQ or KJs to the flop raise, i wanna protect vs a hand like JT or 9T or random spades and some stationy villain will even call 99-QQ facing the flop raise.

    obv it puts me in a tough spot when 3-bet but i expect to make lots of money all of the times i m not 3 bet and i have my As to help me out on tricky turns in pos.

    Also pretty hard for him to put you on AK given preflop.

    I lolled


    @OP:
    Why wouldn't you think a hand reading reg would fold KJ, KQ. It's 3-way so he can't expect you to airball here or even raise 56o,89o. He could call and lead a blank turn but is he that tricky?* I would kind of get it if he's stationary and can't hand read very well. His percieved equity swings around big time if he does expect you to raise 56,9T... yah I guess he does. They don't fold much at dem hundreds, do they.
    I stoved your range without AK... cos obviously that's not what he expects to see a lot.

    My main thought here was: don't we want the potential fish in the blind come along with something very hopeful?

    *edit: oh lol... should have looked back at the hand. That's so funky.
