Default $16: Value-check my nuts?

If I was deeper I'd bet this everytime, but since I have a psb left checking seems fine and if he checks behind I can just shove the river and it's the same thing. Thoughts?


PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1455)
UTG+1 (t505)
MP1 (t1680)
Hero (t1415)
CO (t1935)
Button (t1425)
SB (t3840)
BB (t1245)

Preflop: Hero is in MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t150</font>, CO calls t150, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="gray">BB folds</font>

You'll get paid way more often if you bet like half pot on the turn and shove the river. Not to mention this charges possible flush draws/straight draws or whatever else.

I think checking is fine b/c you don't really need to worry about draws and you might induce a bet from a worse hand. Kinda hard to say what hand you're repping by a turn check tho. Your line only makes sense if you have like 99 maybe. I guess at a $16 you can't expect unknown villain's to put that much effort into reading your hand.

I like leading 450 on the turn. He called PF, called flop, he seems to like pressing the call button.

I think you should take another look at stack sizes, not really possible to do both.
