KK early in a $8.80 MTT. No reads. Thoughts?

No read on villian, really have no idea how I should play this hand. I didn't know what else to do here, I'm bad in these spots. What do you think? Thanks for looking.

Looks fine to me. I go broke here too. There's no way you can put him on a 9 here and players at this level will play top pair and flush draws the same way.

Bad Poster! No Results!

The pfr is fine...maybe a bit more with the limper and
all the people behind to act.

Why did you 3-bet the CR? I know you have no reads, but
what is your standard line VS: limp, call pre, and CR by an
OOP?

haha yea, I should leave those out next time... Anyway, I just felt his move could have been so many other things besides a 9. I don't really know what else I could have done. Call and then let him steal with his missed draw on the turn? I figured he could have had a 9, but every other part of his range needed to be raised here.

Fold to the flop raise...he has trip 9's.

blah, shouldn't have put the results. my bad, we'll get 'em next time. thanks everyone

I'd feel a lot better about letting this go if u bet 350 on the flop. As played i might call and get it in on a safe turn.

with no reads, just go broke w/ it... and invest in pokertracker so you don't have "no reads" anymore [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
