Would anyone play this hand (KK) differently?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

This table was full of fish and people were not folding to PFR. Very fishy table that would hang around with any pair, any pocket pair, etc. No reads on BTN as only played a couple of hands- but did see me show good hand a few minutes earlier. BB is a total calling station who got lucky a few hands back when he caught a second pair on the river and stacked off someone's AAs.

SB ($2.92)
BB ($8.12)
Hero ($5.28)
MP ($2.83)
CO ($7.18)
Button ($3.32)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
Hero raises to $0.12, 2 folds, Button calls $0.12, 1 fold, BB calls $0.10.

Usually raise 4BB but went 6 since UTG and no one was respecting the 4BB PFR

Flop: ($0.37) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.32, Button calls $0.32, BB folds.

Turn: ($1.01) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets $0.62, Button calls $0.62.

River: ($2.25) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $0.8, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $2.25

Did this dude float an A or did he flop a set? Backdoor flush and straight don't make sense?

Call, he could have a KT/QT/T9 or something and it's like 1/3rd of the pot.

I'd bet a little more on the turn, I think you are missing some value. Maybe make it 0.85 or so. River should be an easy check/call, IMO.

He could have a lot of hands. A 10 is most likely.

i pot pot pot (is this bad?) or pot pot c/c. as played easy call on river, especially such a small bet. if the table is full of fish at this level he could have 83h or something ridiculous too. you will lose some of the time but not most of the time imo.

I'm assuming villain has stats like 40/1/0 or somewhere around there? Seriously, if this dude floated an Ace, you got unlucky. I'm more willing to put him on a range of KT-9T. A lot of fish will take top pair, weak kicker to the bank. You should have bet more on the turn, somewhere around $.80 and made it $1.00 on the river. I seriously doubt he backdoored a flush. I also doubt he floated AK as far as he did. I think the vast majority of the time you'll see KT or QT here.

there's $1.08 in the pot post-flop...shove turn and make it expensive for him to draw

What about sets? Are we okay letting sets stack us here? Or is it too passive to worry about sets?

RedSoxFan · #9 09-25-2007, 03:12 PM

Thinking about it, I should have called the $0.80 river bet (getting ~4:1). I didn't lead out because cold called 2 bets and I didn't want to get reraised AI. I only beat TPTK and lose to his set and 2 pair. Too passive?

Bet more on turn and CALL RIVER! You're getting awesome odds.
