Hero....?

This hand is just strange, and not well played from the start...i know. But does he RR me on flop cuz of my small c-bet? but oop why does he RR so small? What should i do with this, just throw it away? Or is he playing on my weakness here? Call and evaluate river or just fold cuz were both semideep and i have a marginal hand? Thx for advice for the whole line even if this might be more standard then i think it is.

I prob fold preflop. Only raise it if its fold to me in the CO or button. Flop is ok i guess but i snap fold turn without a read.

I was getting cold cards for a while and decided to make an EV- play i guess. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Ur right, im mostly folding pf here oop. But i throw in a hand like this once in a while to mix it up a bit. Anyway... as played fold turn without thinking to much about it is best here?

Re: KTs TP vs oop CR on flop..
 

Raising preflop with this hand is quite LAG, but fine imo. If we consider the possible kings he could be holding to call your raise OOP:

AK (if villain is weak preflop)
KQ (reasonable call)
KJ (loose, but very possible at these limits)

A complete bluff is unlikely, as the cr on flop seems to be wanting a call (villain should bet $6 or more if he wants to put you off)

We obviously cant discount a set or twopair completely either (88, 66 are possible preflop but unlikely postflop due to villain cr'ing on a relatively safe board.

K8/K6 are unlikely preflop but are a possibility postflop.

Personally, I would call the flop to see the turn (a heart could set you up for semi-bluff and obviously a K or T may well be good too. I would then fold the turn, as villain is showing strength in a hand where you are relying on villain to be making a major mistake for you to make any profit on this - there are realistically more hands beating you than you can beat.
