I would wait for a better spot. No need to get crazy.

Re: Hero doesn\'t go to war. KT vs donk bet
I dont mind a fold here.
Plan ahead to the river, I like thinking about all scenarios before acting. My thought process would be. What if I raise the flop and he calls and I wiff the turn and he bets? What if I raise the flop and he calls and I wiff the turn and he checks? What if I raise the flop and he calls and I wiff the turn and he check/raises? What if I raise the flop and he calls and I hit the K on the turn and he bets? What if I raise the flop and he calls and I hit the T on the turn and he bets? What if I raise the flop and he calls and I hit the K on the turn and he checks? And so on and so on... I think with this hand you will find yourself in a tough decision in many turn/river scenarios if you hit a pair, making the flop fold good. |

Pot is 18,000. BB bets ~1/4th.
Some players do it on a steal, some with J7, some with 55. Readless, i'm having tough time deciding when to go to war too. But a fold is not bad. |

Re: Hero doesn\'t go to war. KT vs donk bet
If you are going to raise this pre (which is marginal - KT is a hand I'd rather have suited / I'd rather have connectors from MP2), then please raise to ~5500.
Flop is standard, you are either going to bluff raise or fold depending on your opponent's tendencies. If you are going to bluff raise, PSB is best. Really just depends on a lot of factors. This could very well be J10, JQ, JK, even JA / set or a mid pair trying to win the pot. Rarely is it air, he's leading to protect something, especially considering where your raise is coming from. With that, probably a fold, unless you have a good read that player is tight and trying to avoid showdown. Barry |

Re: Hero doesn\'t go to war. KT vs donk bet
