.50-1 limit UB game, pocket kings in MP. guy to my immediate right open limps, I raise, a couple of callers including him. flop is 932, checked to me, he calls along with the BB. turn is a 9. checked to me again, i bet, BB folds, MP limper check-raises. i've played a round-and-a-half, don't know much about him, haven't noticed him get very far out of line. you have to fold here, right?

Negative. When this happens to me, I often find myself up against a pocket pair, or possibly a flush or straight draw, trying to push me off overcards. Against an unknown opponent, I would call down, and bet if checked to on the river.

That would be a pretty creative play for someone in a .50/1.00 game wouldn't it?

Mmm. Maybe in a tougher game. This was pretty loose passive.

Results for those interested: Called him down. He had Q9.

i would call for the river card depending whether there is a flush draw on the board, in which case i would fold.

3 bet if one of my K's is the flush suit.
