I don't like it... if you were in position and he checked it to you it'd be fine. this is not going to get called by worse very often.

stack sizes?

Assuming this is $2/$4, and you started with $400, I'd tend to bet a little smaller on the turn and river to keep the pot under control, but otherwise it looks okay.

Dunno if you can fold to a shove, though, since you'll be getting like 7:1... which brings me back to why I would bet smaller on earlier streets.

Hmm, thinking more... if you can't fold, I guess I don't really like it.

Seems good.
There is not much that beats you, KJ?
Many call down with KQ or KT here especially unknowns like their tp kind of hands.
