Default Re: KK 1/2

Raise the flop. You risk losing value by just smooth-calling (sometimes he'll check turn, sometimes he'll 3bet flop) and are allowing MP to make a correct call with a 4-or 5-outer. If it's HU or you had a read that he's aggro then I like the smoothcall better, but I still wanna pump it with the 3rd player in the pot.

Turn is std. River is tricky.
I don't think he has a Q here. It's a rare breed of player that'll donk the flop with top pair and then slow down on the turn when a brick hits. He might be value betting 6x or 77-JJ, he might have picked up a backdoor flush (A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]). I think since you don't have a read the call is fine. You need to be a 66% favorite vs his range, and I'm not sure whether you are or not.
