KK vs. nitty villain
Villain is 19/9/4.25. Haven't tangoed with him as of yet. I have him covered.
The line I took seems really odd to me (coming from a strong limit background) but I am looking for spots where "me bet because me probably have best hand" to switch to a better line where I extract more value out of hands that would have otherwise folded.

Re: KK vs. nitty villain
Why no bet on the flop?

Why no bet on the flop? [/ QUOTE ] I figured most of the hands that he would bet OR check the flop and call a turn bet would fold if I bet a little under the pot on the flop (my standard). Like I said, this isn't a normal line for me so I have no idea if it is crazy/bizarre/ok to do against a player that has a narrower range than most given his stats. Also, I am less afraid of the FD since I hold the K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Haupt_234 |

Re: KK vs. nitty villain
I think either a flop cbet or a turn CR is in order here.

I find it hard to believe that even a "nitty villain" folds Tx or the flush draw in position to an ordinary cbet if you think he'd bet with those hands when checked to. |

Re: KK vs. nitty villain
Also, as played I c/r the turn. And, I might painfully fold to the river bet if I think villain is any good at all because what exactly are we beating there?

Re: KK vs. nitty villain
I do not play FR, so take that for what its worth.
I would bet this flop almost always. Your hand is great, there are plenty of draws, etc. Yeah, villan is a bit tighter, but I think we are still well ahead of his hand range. I think you played this hand a little too slowly. I definitely don't like the c/c on the flop, I see no benefit of this play unless villan is a super LAG maniac and will keep bluffing no matter what (in which this doesnt seem to be the case). If I check this flop, it would probably be to c/r, though I don't like c/c-ing much. So lead > c/r > c/c imo. Anyways, the rest of the action is a bit different due to strange flop action. I think that you missed value along the way and I would typically look to get it in with this hand. |

I like it that you let villain to draw cheaply and you
gladly paid it off when it hits. |

And although my line was pretty silly, I think check/folding a turned [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] is a lot sillier. Is this what you are recommending?? Haupt_234 |

I should have definitely led the flop and honestly planned on c/ring the turn but backed off when the FD hit. I thought it was unlikely he had a flush but didn't want to pay my stack to find out. Thanks for the comments guys. Haupt_234 |
