late-position blind with K3

[WillMagic]

Party 2/4. Just sat down, and I'm taking the blind in the cut-off. There are two other posters, in UTG and UTG+1. 8 handed.

I'm dealt K /images/graemlins/spade.gif 3 /images/graemlins/club.gif.

UTG, UTG+1 check, UTG+2 limps, MP1 limps, I check, Button limps, SB completes, BB checks. All 8 see the flop.

Flop: 9 /images/graemlins/club.gif Q /images/graemlins/spade.gif K /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

SB folds?, BB, UTG, UTG+1 check, UTG+2 bets, MP1 calls, I raise, folded around to UTG+2 who calls, MP1 calls.

Turn: 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif

UTG+2 checks, MP1 bets????, I raise, UTG+2 folds, MP1 reraises, I fold.

Good laydown? Or weak-tight? That eight didn't seem like it helped him, and I just couldn't see my top pair bad kicker beating anything he would three-bet the turn with.

I think it was a good laydown. MP1 has at least two pair in my opinion. Maybe slowpalyed or turned set.

Of course the laydown was good. I'm just thinking that you didn't need to raise the turn and lose 2BB to find out you were losing.

If you are going to raise the turn you have to fold to a 3-bet ... which you did. If he calls your raise on the turn then you should check behind on the river. All that being said... I would probably just call his bet on the turn and call his bet on the river unless you improve.

[astroglide]

your hand isn't strong enough to checkraise out of position after a bet and a call. you must call a 3bet on the flop, as many draws will do this (a hand like qj or qt for example). i would bet the flop and call 1 back (fold for 2 back) and bet the turn regardless of whether or not i was raised on the flop.

you have a tenuous holding, but you can't give free cards.
