Default Re: NL25 KK

Okay guys, I think in this particular hand it can go either way since there's so little money left behind (but I still like a check/call).

However, what if you and villain still have a PSB left on the flop? Why on earth would you push the flop in this situation? Nothing you beat is folding (thinking villain is folding Ax is just bad), and a good chunk of the time the hands you're crushing aren't calling. Classic WA/WB situation. Since the turn really isn't going to change anything there's no point in betting. Does it turn your hand face up? Not if you check AA/AK here, which you should do a good amount of the time. Will QQ/JJ shove when you check to them? It'll definitely happen on occasion. If you check, he checks behind and you shove turn do you think he'll be more or less likely to call with QQ/JJ? I'd say way more likely. Also, if another heart comes it can actually be GOOD for you if he has one heart as he'll be much more likely to call your turn push and you'll still be way ahead with only one card to come.
