KQo in the SB

[dfscott]

Early in a 10+1. I always have trouble playing from the blinds, and this is no exception.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP1 (t1840)
MP2 (t750)
MP3 (t565)
CO (t910)
Button (t715)
Hero (t730)
BB (t915)
UTG (t955)
UTG+1 (t620)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t15, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls t15, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t60) 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t50</font>, BB folds, UTG+1 calls t50, MP3 calls t50.

i really think youre ahead still. although the players may have been loose enough to limp with AX, i.e. AT, i doubt they would call a flop bet when hitting nothing with it as well. I think you proceed with a 3/4pot size bet and plan to get paid off by a weaker king and/or lower pair.
