Default Re: Playing KK vs. a limp-reraiser

Online, in a no-limit ring game or especially a tournament, lots of players like to limp-reraise with AA or KK in any situation, usually when it is wrong (it is very rare when you should try this but there are a few times where it might be profitable). Usually in a situation like this, the player sees the pot getting bigger and his eyes widen with the size of the pot, so he throws in a reraise with QJs because he knows it plays well in multiway pots, completely disregarding the strength indicated by your raise. As far as I can tell, though, your limp-reraiser gets out of the way on this hand, so what about MP1? Hard to put him on an exact hand here. If he flopped a set, why not raise the flop with the action behind him? And if not that, rereaise the turn against 1 other player? A 5 is possible but unlikely, although you can never quite rule something like that out. Like everyone else said, just bet the turn, you are still probably ahead, only a 5, set, or 24??? is ahead of you. Kind of a weird pot for 30/60 live, I suppose.
