This is about the fifth hand of a 5+0.5. t1500 starting stack, blinds 10/20. No reads on anyone, everyone has about 1500. I'm dealt KK in MP. EP guy limps, I make it 100, guy to my left calls, early limper calls. Board comes down 456, I bet 200 into a pot of 330, both players call. Turn comes a 2, EP limper pushes. This is an easy fold right?

Very, very easy. So easy that he may have the 7 and puts you on the ace expecting a call.

This is an semi-easy fold because the EP guy pushed at you. Otherwise it isnt so easy.

Your preflop raise of 5X the bigblind theoretically weeds out the field. But no so fast....

It's not an automatic fold. What this guy is pushing with who knows. The board is smoothing, and its a huge bet. You can call and gamble, or get out. Adding to your problems with this hand is whether the late guy calls also.

FOlding is probably smart because the buyin is $5 and its early and there are alot of fools calling preflop raises with all kinds of cheese. Maybe the guy has 23 off. Seriously.

The EP limper so often has a pair of deuces here that you can smile as you fold and play on.
