Check through turn and call most river bets.

As played, fold.

I agree with the turn check and to fold to the raise as played.

In fact, does anyone else just fold the flop ever?

This was my first instinct(no backdoor flush draw, weak kicker, tight smooth caller). As played, I think we pretty easily fold to the push.

ok, it's clear that the forum is against me on this one. I still believe I played it right and I'm fine with the fact that I don't see anyone agreeing. Much of it is read dependant witch doesn't go over well in these forums.

My live play will differ greatly from online play when I feel I can trust my reads.

With the board Ks, 6c, 5s, 3c

I looked at the chance OP had the 7,4 or 4,2. He was playing tight and didn't seem to be the type to limp low gappers, even suited, as 2nd limper over an EP limp in the CO without more limpers. If he had 7s,4s, I think he would have taken a little more time on the flop. 7d,4d or 7h,4h, I believed that he would have led the turn with me and posibly the EP player representing draws and 2 flush draws on board. 7c,4c did worry me a little but as I said before I greatly discounted the 7,4 alltogether as part of his original range.

All slow played sets, 2 pairs, or better Kings I nearly discounted all together because of the tells and dangerous board with multiple opponents.

On the other hand, As,4s or 7c,8c looked entirely consistant with the line he took as well as with all of my live reads including the fact that it was looking like he was trying to make up his mind on his push.

Out loud I meantioned that I didn't think he would have let that turn go without leading with a made hand so I thought he had to have a monster draw and finally called.

He meantioned that my read was perfect and turned over the As,4s. My hand held up and made me the clear table leader.

Default I just spoted a typo

I just spoted a typo in my original post which probably caused confusion.

Instead of a flop of Ks,7c,6s it should have read Ks,6c,5s as shown later in the post. Of course this does change things so I appoligize. It was a while ago and I was trying to remember the details.

Sounds like you both played it rly well, I don't know if I would have called but its definitely a possibility since as you said checking a made hand there is quite unlikely, and the fact that you overcalling the flop looks quite weak too. And in the prelim. events getting a big stack is huge. Also I probably would have bet the turn too. Early in these events its 100x more likely someone will make a loose call on a draw than bluff a busted draw on the river. Its also more likely ppl have crappy hands, and most ppl early on wont CR the turn on a draw. And theres a million river cards that can outdraw you.

In my opinion, we should just be folding the flop. I'm surprised some people are suggesting to do otherwise.

I fold the flop without thinking a lot about it.
