Re: KK...a thought process in the heat of battle.

the plan that i devised for this hand was what i thought was the cheapest way to get to showdown but one that still protected my hand.

Putting UTG on only AA (and thus affecting how you play this hand, i.e. cheap showdown) is weak, imo. And I wear real purty skirts.

re: the argument about giving odds to PP's calling one bet - heres why i disagree. what are the odds of the 3 people behind me even holding PP's? the odds that you'll get dealt a PP to start with are only 6.5%. thus its unlikely that even one of them has a PP, and if one does, he's still only 22:1 to hit on the turn. its much more likely that folks have random connected cards/draws/two-pair draws imo.

Fair enough, but pocket pairs are now probably slightly more likely to appear behind you due to the coldcalling of your preflop raise. But backdoor straight and flush draws are usually also coming along in a pot this big; add one or two of those plus one pocket pair and you've got a gaggle of idiots to charge.
