Default Re: KK is this Standard

[ QUOTE ]
This is totally standard. You could raise more PF, but it's kind of pointless. Raising 120 or 150 isn't going to make a difference.

Wrong, it will make a difference when they whiff the flop and you take it down with a C-bet.

Something to think about: When you are AHEAD and you are likely to be ahead on the next street it is correct (more often than not) to bet as much as you think your opponent will call. The bigger FTOP mistake they make - the better off we are.

It ALSO makes a difference due to IMPLIED POT ODDS you're offering. If I know that you will most likely go to the felt with your big pokets or TPTK type hands - then I'm NOT making a mistake calling 100 raise with more than 1K behind with, say, suited connectors or small pocket pairs. to call 130 raise becomes a bit iffy for SC's, 150 raise - they are not getting good odds and with 200 raise they are barely getting correct odds on their pocket pairs.

I like 150 - 170 raise here.
