Thought this was a very tough turn, but i pulled the trigger anyways........ is a shove better here? I kind of value bet since i thought utg was mini raising a lower st8, set or maybe a naked 10 and possibly super donking top pair.......... i really think this is an interesting hand...... thoughts?

Fold preflop. Against a raise and a call your hand is heavily dominated most of the time and you'll have to play that hand oop in a big pot.

I bet UTG all-in on the turn.

This fold is totally standard. KTo is crap oop against a raise and a call. It's even only hardly worth a call on the button against a tight player UTG.

im not worried about being oop with k 10, if it hits im almost never behind and position doesnt matter.... plus i'm generally rediculously +EV postflop at this limit...... this is never a losing call, and we are facing a min raise......... im never calling a raise bigger then minimum here fwiw.

I overbet flop like 5-6$. Very often they will have a decent hand and they will be willing to go brok, if they have QJ or sets. Also its very drawheavy so protect your hand. I also make a larger reraise on flop. Probably 12-13$.

Didn't see it was a minraise. Thought it was 25NL and a normal raise. Sorry. A call is marginal but ok then. I don't agree with "if it hits im almost never behind and position doesnt matter..." though unless you define "hits" as 2pair or straight. You will end up with a pair very often in a raised pot and that is awkward. And even if you hit trip Ks, you could be in kicker trouble. Unlikely against a minraise. But not impossible.

I find at nl50...... leading light oop will almost always induce a raise, which it did, although much smaller then i would have liked...... also, i can understand popping it to 12-13, but i wanted people to stay in with weaker holdings for value.......... which may sound odd, but i find in this spot most people have a tough time laying down 10 8, Q J, A Q and even K Q.... for a bet around 10 bucks, whereas 12-13 im only going to see sets and flush draws called.... plus i dont mind slowing down and check calling here, also, stacks made a big difference, if we were deeper i play it much different, being that worse case scenario i lose 80bb, i like my line here.
