100 nl should i slowplay this set.
 

Villain is unknown

I am dealt KK on the button

Preflop:
I raise to $3.5. Villain calls from the SB.
*** FLOP *** [Kh 6s 8c] $7 in the pot
Villain bets $4. Hero ??

Board seems pretty dry and I think it is very likely he has a pair of 8s or something. There are 2 open ended str8 draws. Even if he hits a str8 I have a good redraw and if he has a pair he has 5 outs to get stacked. If I raise here it seems unlikely that he will call me.

Most of the time I would just call this. There are few hands that have outs, only straight draws. Hopefully he bets the turn.

Raise right there for value.

Re raise flop, straight draw out there and he could have something like 7/9 or 9/10. Re riase to about 10 or so/if you has a set you will be all in with him

Depends on stack sizes, as your primary goal is to be all-in by the river. With 100BB stacks, you're not going to get there without a raise or pot overbet somewhere, so I raise now, to $15 or so. An OESD may well still think he has implied odds to call.

I would raise here to start getting the money in

stacks plz.

Re: 100 nl should i slowplay this set.
 

stacks are $100

Assuming 50c/$1 blinds, Calling your PF raise, he probably has a hand like KQ,KJ (seen flat calls with AK too) or maybe a small/mid PP and just made a set. On that basis, I'm reraising to about $12. You need to build the pot to make it harder for him to get away from the hand on later streets, and at the same time you are protecting yourself against the unlikely straight draws to some extent.

No problem with a slowplay here, straight draw is very unlikely. I don't like slowplaying in general, but this isn't a terrible spot

Re: 100 nl should i slowplay this set.
 

my experience when people donk into the raisor is that they have a weak made hand so I don't really think we need to worry about the draw that much but this is also a difficult spot to get much money in the pot no matter what you do if all he has is an unimproved PP, 8 or 6. I probably call or raise about 50/50 here
