I think this is fine. You could never seriously consider folding, but you're beat here a good bit on the turn (and river) so I think you just had to call him down.

I'm wondering about this and about the size of the flop bet. If the guy had come out with a pot-sized bet, I would have thought pretty seriously about folding, since he had rr'd pre-flop, and against any reasonable range of hands you'd rr with (villain had KQs, but that's beside the point), I'm behind if it's not just a cbet. The weakness of the bet on the flop (a little more than 1/3) is what convinced me to keep playing. The second barrel scared me a little bit, but people at these tables will almost always second barrel.

My question is what is the "standard" play for KQs in MP after an utg raise this early. I usually just fold cause I suck post flop. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] And I also raise 3x utg here. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

i'm probably limping TT here. as played it looks fine, no sense in folding to his weak bets, it's almost always trash when played like that at the 6.50s. i would probably go for a c/r on the turn myself - he just looks so pathetically weak.

also, don't play KQs in the first few levels...

It is so riduculously obvious that you have him with that weak turn bet. I lead 200-250 at the river and hope for a call from AK-AQ
