Getting max value when you flop a monster

[calidris]

Semihypothetical question and maybe not that important in the long run but I'm curious.

0.25/0.50, 10-handed, you get KK in the pocket and raise PF from MP. You get a couple of loose coldcallers and 1 TAG calls your raise from EP. Flop comes KKJ and it's checked to you.

What do you do to get paid?

[fretelöo]

Check, donk turn. Board is crippled. Hope someone finds something on the turn.

[Poker Plan]

Pray to God someone has a J and then gets another one on the turn!

Not many hands are going to be interested with that board.


I really wouldn't worry about the BIG monster hands- they're not going to be your money earners, by a long way.

Worry more about marginal situations that you'll find yourself in regularly than the 1 time in whatever that you will flop quads

Take a look at milesdyson's title...
Edit: crap, sean c beat me to it.

bet the flop, but watch the action and make sure that you dont go too crazy and cut off any of your action.
