Re: KK, + dry pot + deepstack overcall
Bet the flop. As played, you're probably beat on the river but you still have a huge stack if you call. There's a chance he has KQ or AQ which I think is worth 11k more to call.

Raise preflop. I might even min raise here to isolate. Bet flop as played.

Push preflop. No point minraising to isolate since your going to call either of the Blinds pushes anyways. This tough spot postflop could have been easily avoided.

I think we are being a bit results orientated here guys. We aren't here to avoid tough spots, we are here to max EV.
I think the flat call pre was fine, we have a monster, and we will be in position against the blinds if they deciede to come along. I think you should have led out on the flop though and then gone from there. |

Re: KK, + dry pot + deepstack overcall
That's a dangerous flop to be giving free cards. BB's range is pretty wide for a preflop overcall with the pot odds. You need to bet this flop. BB only has slightly more than a PSB in his stack on the flop so putting him all in on the flop wouldn't be bad.

I don't actually think seeing a flop with KK in position, when you hand is reasonably under repped is a particularly tough spot, but whatever... |

What the hell is the matter with you people? How can you develop your poker skillz and maximize EV if your main goal is to avoid post-flop decisions? As Jammy said, we're in position and have the second best starting hand in Texas Hold'em. Geez! OP, you have to bet the flop here, no doubt about it. As played, I'd fold to his river bet, he seems confident to have the best hand. |
