Default Re: KK vs. turn raise 25nl

min check raise looks strong here. I would be more tempted to call a shove, since he could shove here with a OESD that just picked up FD.

ON the other hand, this c/r is really horrible if it is for value, because he doesn't need to cr, since just calling leads to a pot of $24 on the river and hero will only have $16 left. So you can fold, and be happy he showed his strength here and let you escape with half your stack, instead of waiting until the river when he is pretty much guaranteed your whole stack, like he did i nthe last hand you played.

That said, you have seen him play his straights by calling turn/potting river, and since he's taking a different line now, maybe this is a cheap way for him to bluff his line in that hand, which makes this closer to a call. But I think this is giving him too much credit. I doubt he think that much about his lines.
