Default Re: 5.5€. KOo from MP

looks ok to me,I don't mind the call pre flop as you can get away from it if shoved on (have been seeing a lot of utg limp/reraise recently?).

After that it looks fine, although i quite often lead out on the flop here as nobody puts you on the Q as they presume you'll slowplay it(generalisation but at 5.50 level often true). Also the check/call or check/ raise can set off the alarm bells imo.

Having checked the flop i'd probably check/raise all in on the turn, giving him a second chance to take the pot(in his eyes). Apart from the diamond draw, which only appeared on the turn this is a very safe board so not too worried about giving a free card then getting it all in on the river.

So i'd probably lead flop then turn, unless the opponent is prone to bluffing, but to be honest on this board slowplaying is absolutely fine as well as you are only behind 88 and AQ(would've raised pre-flop) and crushing limping range such as A8,QJ,QT.

nh and welcome to the forums.
