Re: How do you play these kings?
no your not blocking here. you have the second nuts. you dont want a flat call. i make a small value bet and hope it gets raised then i shove all in and if he has the ace then so be it. many other hands will pay you off at this point

Re: How do you play these kings?
Raise more preflop so your flop bet commits you...where are the stacks anyways

Re: How do you play these kings?
I don't see anything but A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] raising you here if you block, but I can see a lower heart calling a value bet.
The pot is ~$50 and you have about $29 left. If by a small value bet you mean $5, I don't see the point. I think I'd bet $25 or shove all in (I'm still not exactly sure if a push is seen as the nuts or as an attempt to bluff). I'd personally bet $25 and expect any reasonable heart to call here. I think any [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] above a 5 makes a reluctant call. If he had top pair w/ A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] kicker, tough. He could also have had suited connectors and slowplayed the turn. Or if he's a real donk, he might even pay you off with QJ and later complain to his friends how some donk rivered a flush against his two-pair. |

Re: How do you play these kings?
Sorry I forgot to include stack sizes, I was just under $50 and he had about $70.
Results: Hero Checks Villian Bets $18.00 Hero All In Villian Calls $10.25 Hero shows (K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]) Villian shows (T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]) Villian Wins $105.25 from pot 1 with : Flush, Ace High Should I have just called on the river? I figured if he has the ace he has the ace, but that I might be able to get some more money out of him if he was going to steal. Thanks for the input guys. |

Re: How do you play these kings?
IMO everything looks good but that river all in raise. I would have just called it.

Re: How do you play these kings?
So why aren't we value-betting the turn here, too?
