Default Party 11$ - Should I fold KK ?

Early on, still 10 players at the table, everyone at roughly 2000. Hero has 1600.

Blinds at 30/60.

Hero had K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

UTG calls 60, UTG+1 folds, Hero raises to 200, ...., BB calls 140, UTG calls 140

Flop comes(pot 630):

J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets 400, BB folds, UTG bets 1400 all-in, hero ?

So what's my move here ? Getting 2:1 potodds with the overpair, but looks likely that I might be facing trips, Could be AJ, QQ, Ace high flush draw or a bunch of other things too though.

And should I have played it differently, perhaps bigger PF bet ?

I'd make it 240 PF but no big deal. I don't lay this down at an $11. Guys will do this with a flush draw, OESD, AJ, KJ, etc. too often.

I think he's usually going to have trips or better to make that play.

Call. This is a very wide range of hands, that KK fairs very well against.

Definitely call, straight draws, flush draws, AJ, a complete bluff. . . who knows. . . unless you know this person to be a solid regular, you need to call this.

A good player certainly would. I just don't think at a Party $11 you can give him that kind of credit here. You'll see a wide array of different hands that will make this play here.

On a side note...I miss the Party $11's.

Many call there with trips

Tough with no read on players

Fold and you have a grand. Feel like one of the better players there - fold it.

But know it's also not so crazy to call vs a 10 and still win it. heart, heart, q-a, q-9 or the magic k.

Backdoor flush pro'lly has me calling 80%. 20% gut fold
