Default Re: Does any street make sense?

Capt, the question is, what are you trying to accomplish on the river? Earlier in the thread you mentioned possibly folding out the button's king. I just don't think this is a realistic expectation.

You don't 3bet the turn for the same reason you don't raise the flop - no good can come of it. On the turn, I'd say the most likely hand the button has is AQ/AJ, though of course 88, and the remaining king in the deck are also possible. If you 3bet, you put yourself on a range of hands of which KQ exists at the lower end. While you'll now be getting called down by KT, this is true, you're folding out their most likely holdings - aces. Additionally, just calling here will not prevent KT from betting the unseen river.
