Default Overcall KJo

Preflop: Hero is Big blind with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, Button raises, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls, CO calls

Flop: (8.50 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG checks, CO bets, Button calls, Hero?

Button was fairly tight preflop, doesn't chase postflop. Better then your average player. Not sure if that was a bad call for me to begin with. I was getting 7.5:1 to call.

UTG and CO are very fishy, will call down with about any hand. Have called 2 cold on several occasions when I tried to protect my hand.

Button probably doesn't have you beat. At least not yet. He could have quite a few outs against you, but there's not much you can do about that.

It seems like a call to me unless CO never bets without a monster. But, in general, his flop donkbet doesn't represent massive strength or anything. I'm thinking he probably has a king.

By the way, I think a checkraise is something to consider. I like that better than folding.

Occasionally Button will have a monster he's waiting to raise with on the turn, but we shouldn't assume that's what's going on.

What Nick said. You're thinking of folding this?

10% fold maybe. Trying to decide whether a raise or an overcall would be better.

I vote raise also. Button's probably drawing, CO could have a T, but if he has a king, it's probably weaker than yours. Raise flop, lead turn.

Check/raise here for value. Were you planning to c/r a button C-bet?
