$27 - KK preflop
 
The pot was 270 (18% of my stack) when it it was my turn to act.
What would yo do here? Raise and to what or push?
How is raising to 360? (3x60 +60+60+60)

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) by Hand Converter CG

MP3 (t1500)
CO (t1490)
Button (t2140)
SB (t1420)
Hero (t1500)
UTG (t1220)
UTG+1 (t1420)
MP1 (t1310)
MP2 (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t60</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t60, MP3 calls t60, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t60, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero ??

Re: $27 - AK preflop
 
I guess the 1st thing you do is decide do you have AK or KK, subject and body don't match.

Regarding the raise to 360, if someone shoves are you laying it down?

I'd be happy to shove here....

What has the title got to do with a KK holding?

Anyway with KK I am probably raising pot amount.

Re: $27 - AK preflop
 
if you have AK i like shoving in spots like this with all the dead money, certainly a move you should have in your arsenal.

if you have KK usually id make it 360-400 and obviously call a shove.

if youre playing against a regular/someone good who will notice these types of things you need to vary your play accordingly, but you shouldnt run into this too often I would think.

Sorry for the mistake, it's KK.
No of course I am not going to lay it down, but I figured I might lose value by shoving (all kinds of hands I am way ahead of fold)

note to self:
A shove from AMT in this spot means AK....
