Default Re: Playing KK vs. a limp-reraiser

My basic thoughts are:

1. Given pre-flop action, many opponents would not raise a 7 on the flop here. In fact, a majority of plays might not because most players are pretty passive. So there are many top pair type hands that might be in play that will call a river bet.

2. Some opponents will not open-raise hands like 88 pre-flop. Most won't raise 66 or 44, which are hands that might bet this turn AND call a river bet.

3. A 5 or a boat becomes significantly less likely once we do not get three-bet on the turn.
