KK early in APPT Step 4
First post in HSMTT. If this needs to be moved to STT that's fine, but it's really the stakes that has me questioning this hand. Also, sorry for no converter, but the one I usually use is gone, and I saw a few threads in here without one, so I thought maybe it was ok.
PokerStars Game #13270648901: Tournament #67323802, $200+$15 Hold'em No Limit - Level I (10/20) - 2007/11/16 - 03:32:29 (ET) Table '67323802 1' 9-max Seat #8 is the button Seat 1: sharkbait333 (1420 in chips) Seat 2: frogy2 (1470 in chips) Seat 3: UsersRLosers (1650 in chips) Seat 4: MNTJ2198 (1470 in chips) Seat 5: 4played (1510 in chips) Seat 6: marcmpr (1540 in chips) Seat 7: hibirdharry (1550 in chips) Seat 8: GypsieChris (1470 in chips) Seat 9: bigpaddy (1420 in chips) bigpaddy: posts small blind 10 sharkbait333: posts big blind 20 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to marcmpr [Ks Kd] frogy2: folds UsersRLosers: folds MNTJ2198: folds 4played: folds marcmpr: raises 40 to 60 hibirdharry: folds GypsieChris: folds bigpaddy: folds sharkbait333: calls 40 *** FLOP *** [2c 6d 8h] sharkbait333: checks marcmpr: bets 60 sharkbait333: calls 60 *** TURN *** [2c 6d 8h] [6c] sharkbait333: checks marcmpr: bets 120 sharkbait333: raises 260 to 380 marcmpr: calls 260 *** RIVER *** [2c 6d 8h 6c] [5c] sharkbait333: bets 680 Hero? I mostly play live, & micro-limits online, but I tried the steps thing for fun & here I am at $215. I would never throw this away live unless I really knew the guy I was up against, and I'd pretty much never fold it online at the limits I play normally ($1-$6). But from all my reading of 2+2, this seems like a fold at higher stakes, no? |

Re: KK early in APPT Step 4
Bet more pre, bet more on flop, check behind on turn, call river?

Re: KK early in APPT Step 4
Thanks for the input. FWIW, I folded. I couldn't convince myself he didn't have a 6 or caught a flush, and if I called and lost I was at a HUGE disadvantage w/less than 600 chips left.

Re: KK early in APPT Step 4
Why I call: His turn raise is representing a six. The river completes backdoor straight and flush hands. However, most people wouldn't semibluff raise on turn, especially given chip stacks here so likely he either has a made hand(w/ an 8?) or is bluffing. Additionally, on river he makes a big bet on board where both backdoors came in. Though it's not a superthin value bet, it is a gutsy value bet nonetheless and most people don't make these thinnish value bets, being content to check down their good hand. my 2 cents. Thus likely a bluff.
