KK against flush board
Stars $5.50 SnG (45 players), early doors. I've taken down a couple of pots on the flop. Then this happens...
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (7 handed) internettexasholdem.com BB (t1080) UTG (t1390) MP1 (t1450) MP2 (t1520) Hero (t1670) Button (t3140) SB (t1790) Preflop: Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t60</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t60, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t240</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG calls t180, MP2 folds. Flop: (t570) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t120</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1430</font> No reads on villain. Ok, so if he has two diamonds I'm a dead man. Ditto bullets, but then he would probably have re-raised PF anyway. I'm thinking from his small bet maybe he's paired the flop, maybe he's got a diamond. Maybe he's on QQ-TT. Pot is 810 after I've called his bet, so my raise is around 1.2 times the pot. I'm denying him odds to draw, and taking down a nice pot... right? |

Re: KK against flush board
I think this is fine...Villian might put you on a single diamond draw ie. Ad or Kd and might call with single pair hands.
i think calling and pushing over a non-diamond turn might be a stronger line with more FE but meh...in a $5 SnG, he's calling with all sorts pre- and post- flop so either is fine. |

Re: KK against flush board
I thought about calling, but another card I don't want to see on the turn is an ace. That takes the number of "bad" turn cards from ten to thirteen. As you say, meh...
