I'm wondering if I played this right at .5/1 on poker stars.
I'm on the button and the table is pretty passive and most of the people fold to raises of any kind. The table folds to me, I decide to limp in with KK because I had only been collecting the blinds and I decided to try and get more value out of this hand.
The small and the big blind complete/call.
3 players to the flop.
K 4 5 rainbow...pretty much the best flop I can hope for. Small blind bets 3, big blind folds, I just call.
turn comes an 8. check-- I decide to bet 5. they call.
at this point I think i'm up against a smaller set because I didn't think the straight possibility of 67 would have bet that hard on the flop.
A jack comes on fifth street.
So my KK on a board of K 4 5 8 J --no flush possibilities.
Small blind bets 10--I don't know if I'm against two pair or a set but I think I can rule out the only possible hand that can beat me because of the flop bet and how the small blind is springing to life on the river. I reraise to 40, they push, I call for my remaining 100 or so.
Can I ever lay down trip kings on this board?
