Default Re: KJs in the BB

7.5bb is a pot that you want to win now. screwing around and checkraising the turn has a higher risk/reward ratio. worst case scenario with a bet: it wins a big pot UI. best case scenario with a c/r: you parlay that it happens to gain a bet on the turn at the cost of losing the pot more often. your c/r has to work perfectly alot of the time for it to be correct. when a pot reaches a certain size, the board is a certain texture, and your holding in relation to your opponents' ranges is of a certain static strength alot of the time winning the pot outright will outweigh the benefits of gaining an extra bet once in 4 or 5 times.

I think a CR works virtually always, not "once in four or 5 times"

Also, the times we win the pot outright with a bet are usually the times that villains are drawing nearly dead against us.
