i raise to 120 preflop, you wud prob get same amount of callers

flop fine

turn has to be a check/fold

the hands that will stay in against you love that turn, 2 pairs, sets, straights, flush all fit villains' holdings...or maybe im just an uber nit

Preflop: fine

Flop: with 3 opponents and a dangerous board i would make it pot-size here

Turn: I don't like checking the turn, which is too passive imo. sure it looks like a flush outthere (maybe a straight - but this one had to be a gutshot on the flop). but with checking you will face a large bet most of the time, that you cannot call. I'd make a blocking bet about 400 so that you have an exit possibility if one of the two villains pushes.

but overall not a good spot for your kings

check and see what happens free cards aren't awful cuz they mean you are ahead on the turn.

Have you ever played a 4/180? No way is this a check/fold

MP2 has 1400-1500 left, CO about 1600. The pot is already 1290. Make it 900-1000 and call any push. 4/180 donks call you here with Q9 and trash like that - especially this early! If one of the villains happens to have a set, straight or flush, you have outs for the K high flush.

true - but what will you do if you check and one of the two villain bet out for 400-600?

it depends on which one I consider prob calling if it's the first guy shoving if it's 2nd guy.

Really disagre. In a 4-180, you need to be raising up a litle more here. You are going to get called a lot anyway, and won't wind up in a 4 or 5 way pot, OOP with no idea what anyone else has...
