I had crazy aggressive image of a guy who overplays his hand. He beated me in last match where I overplayed TPWK (I had JT the board was T and it was pretty clear he had me beat but I was steaming a little and I got broke). Here I decided to move in because he was likely to call me with pocket pair and since there are two aces on board, it is a low probability that he has an ace. Did I overplay this hand - should I just check turn? |

I raise more preflop. 300-350. I do like your play though with your image. But how has he respected you. Has he been folding to your bets often? Or called too much?

[/ QUOTE ] He didn't play back at me without cards, he folded a lot to my bets but I think it was because he didn't have anything. Also, i expect him to slowplay if he has an ace here because of my image. I expect him to play pocket pairs 77+ and an ace the same way. In earlier match where I got stacked, he limp called KK preflop. |

Re: KK on AA board 22$ NLTRN
this is one of those situations where I think the villain will be able to play perfectly against you. He probably isn't calling the flop and turn much with something you beat.
I hate playing KK on these boards. What I usually do is make a smallish cbet, and then check and let them try to bluff me. This way I still lose if they have an ace since I can't get away from it, but I profit when they decide to rep the ace. |

Re: KK on AA board 22$ NLTRN
this situation isn't far off from tpwk. tpwk, you can account for two cards and are afraid he has the other one.
i feel like the turn is way ahead/way behind so you might as well check to induce a bluff. also you'll still have one more street to fire a psb if you want to -- if he's paying you off on the turn with a middle pocket pair, he'll probably pay you off on the river. |

Re: KK on AA board 22$ NLTRN
I don't think he would try to bluff me if I check turn. He responded to my aggression with slowplaying, not by playing back at me. I also think he would not believe me that I have an ace here. So I might try to check and play smaller pot against him. If he has a pair, he will check behind, probably with an ace also, but he will also pay me off with a pocket pair if I push. So checking might be good if I want to play smaller pot. I will succeed in that probably because if he has an ace, he will probably check turn and make a small bet river or make a small bet two times. These are my reads. It is just a question if I want to play for my stack here and lose almost everything if he has an ace or do I prefer smaller pot.

Re: KK on AA board 22$ NLTRN
If his calling range on a push is made up of that many hands that you beat compared to a few aces that beat you, why would this postflop line not be optimal?
