PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com (http://www.internettexasholdem.com)

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

Button ($2.66)
SB ($5.52)
BB ($2.81)
UTG ($0.74)
UTG+1 ($1.57)
Hero ($4.97)
MP2 ($4.92)
MP3 ($5.33)
CO ($0.81)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.08</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to $0.2</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.7</font>, MP3 calls $0.50.

Villian is 88/30/4.67
NLTAP talks about big pots with big pairs vs these types of players. At least thats what I think I read. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

I thought $1 would be too much so I went a bit lower with .70

Flop: ($1.43) Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $0.50

After reviewing my session I don't think this is standard.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

many ways to play this hand, good chance you're way ahead.

c/r would be nice as chances are he'll bet into you if you check.

you're play seems to be a bit weak (only 1/3PSB) which is good against villain considering his stats and the fact that you think you're ahead.

It's begging for a reraise which is what you want.

PF, raise more. Hell, push all in against a maniac if your heart desires. Believe me, they WILL NOT fold to big ars 3-bets/4-bets PF.

Flop...lol. KK with an A on the flop OOP against a maniac. Now you're in trouble. Lets just pray he doesn't have an Ace. There are several ways to play this...

a) check to him on all three streets. A guy with these kind of stats will fire 3-bullets if checked to.

b) make a weakish flop bet (like you did), call a raise if he raises, the CRAI on the turn.
