Re: pp 2/4: top set KK OESD broadway board

But I'd still call down. [/ QUOTE ] Agreed. If someone was acting after me, I'd have to think twice about this, but heads-up, I'm calling. Additionally, if you fill-up, you can often expect to get at least two bets on the river here.

i don't really understand your logic. whatever you think he might have, he leads the turn after you 3 bet with 4 to broadway present. yes, you still MIGHT have him beat, but, with that lead i would maybe think he has a,x(hearts) or something else that has you beat. even if you raise, i don't see him calling the river with two pair because it looks like for sure you made broadway... [/ QUOTE ] ok so it seems like everyone here is thinking some variant of, "hero had 3b on scary board, turn makes a 4 card sraight , villain is not scared, hero must be behind." i'm arguing that if you look at the card that came off, think about what villain did throughout the hand and what he could possibly have, i feel that hero is ahead a good portion of time. his stats are taggish on the loose and aggressive side. name a hand that calls preflop and finds this board c/r'able from a UTG raiser.

Re: pp 2/4: top set KK OESD broadway board
hmm when the turn hits any A or 9 has the str8, and since the Ace is such a popular card i think you call down here. You're calling 1 BB with many outs, and any face will give you a boat, and an Ace will at least let you chop. I dont see how you can let this one go here.
Also... is there any chance of a raise on the turn to hopefully free SD if hero doesnt hit?

Re: pp 2/4: top set KK OESD broadway board
Free showdown? The only hands that will give a free showdown if the OP doesn't improve are ones that he has beat. No way, unless the turn bettor only has a 9. An ace will 3-bet. Even a 9 might 3-bet if he is crazy enough. He gets a free showdown from a pair/2-pair/worse-set. So when he is ahead, he makes the same amount of money (unless of course the board pairs), and when he is behind he loses 2 more bets.

name a hand that calls preflop and finds this board c/r'able from a UTG raiser. [/ QUOTE ] AJh (A9h too). Okay, silly challenge aside (you said youself he probably doesn't 3-bet AJ)... Lots of hands holding an A (and some with a 9) would call 1 more in the BB, even against an early raise. Some people even think "Well, I can't let him steal the blinds" despite the raise coming from UTG+1. Lots of hands can C/R this flop, given your early raise and it being heads-up (where a follow-up bet from the raiser is a given). The aforementioned As and 9s, any flush draw. Nobody's saying you're not ahead. But the prospect of being 3-bet sucks (you're very likely behind, and you can't fold), and someone on the loose/aggressive side of things is certainly capable of 3-betting. Don't be so defensive. You asked for input, and are tossing it out because it doesn't agree with what you came in wanting to believe (I raised, and I was right to do so). I don't think you're ahead as often as you think you are. Look at it from his position. You raised PF, you bet/3-bet the flop. What does he think YOU have that he would bet that turn? He has to at least expect a raise is possible.

Results: hero raises, villain 3-bets, hero calls. river is a blank. villain bets, hero calls, villain shows A4o and MHING.
