Default Re: KK on monotone flop

[ QUOTE ]
I absolutely hate calling then check-calling the river against someone who is willing to open Q9s in the hijack. I'm not sure if I like calling and donking the river or just 3betting now, but I know I don't like going into call-down mode.

Someone opening for a raise preflop with q9s and their postflop play have little correlation.

Against an unknown, I want information. If we three bet and get capped, we deprive ourselves of that info. And what if he got lucky? I don't want him to have the pleasure of extracting more of my chips. Let's face it. What are we protecting against? I might play differently without the club.

My line just about guarantees a showdown.

Also in a rare case that he is on a pure bluff, I don't want to miss out on him bluffing on the river.
