Default Re: KK on monotone flop

[ QUOTE ]
Bellagio 15-30, Villain is relatively unknown, he showed down one hand in which he opened from the HJ and had Q9s, other than that he is unknown.

Villain opens from CO, Button cold calls, Hero 3-bets K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] from SB, BB folds, Villain calls, cold-caller calls.

Flop: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Hero bets, Villain calls, other guy folds.

Turn J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Hero bets, Villain raises, Hero?

What is my play if I 3-bet and Villain 4-bets? What if Villain calls my 3-bet then raises the river? Any good lines that involve just calling this raise on the turn?

I three bet this turn. You have an overpair and the 2nd nut flush draw. Your opponent probably has a jack and puts you on a big ace or pocket pair smaller than jacks. This could well be a free showdown raise. If you plan to check the river, raise now and get the extra bet.

The guy on the button who cold called preflop would have been the opponent more likely to have a suited hand. The initial raiser is more likely to have a high card hand, but not a big pocket pair since he did not 4 bet preflop. He could have flopped a set and waited till the turn to raise but I think you should take that chance. The flopped set is unlikely if the opponent is any good since he would have to charge drawing hands the max to continue on the flop with three suited on board.
