First post: Pocket kings on a decent flop
First post, so I' not sure if I've got all this stuff right. A bit about me: I make all my poker money playing SnG's, invest it into ring games and then lose it all. I'm not sure why and thats why I've joined 2+2... hopefully I can give soemhing back, though I dont know what.
On to the hand. The table has a lt of limpin and calling, someone raised 4bbs earlier and got 5 callers. Te particular players I have no reads on, but it shoud be noted its not impossible they are playing rags Full Tilt Poker No Limit Holdem Ring game Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 8 players Converter Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3 folds, MP2 calls, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $0.4</font>, BB calls, MP2 calls. Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($1.2, 3 players) <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $1.2</font>, BB calls, MP2 calls. Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($4.8, 3 players) Results: Final pot: $4.8 ? Where do you guys think I'm at? What move should I make? |

I'm checking here, I havent a clue where we're at so best to keep this pot small.

Re: First post: Pocket kings on a decent flop
I notice from the final pot size you did not value bet river. Why?

Re: First post: Pocket kings on a decent flop
I guess I messed up my post, but I'll say this wihout giving anything away
Thats not the final pot size, and more cards and action come. Ignoring the error I made, what do we do here? Lets say we check as you suggest and face a bet? We throw kings away easily? I know discipline is important, but is checking here inducing a bluff? |

Re: First post: Pocket kings on a decent flop
I dont think you're going to see many bluffs into 2 opponents. I'm not sure how easily I could throw away KK readless, I probably would to a large bet. I think it's important to check here for pot control.
