Looks OK, but if the player is THAT fishy...I think a turn raise is good. If he doesn't come back over the top and re-raise, I'd be confident he doesn't have a K.

He could just as easily have nothing, a 3, an 8, or a much weaker Q...again assuming he is THAT fishy.

You played it safe by calling down, but I think you could have stepped up the aggression on the turn and raised.

Just my .02! /images/graemlins/wink.gif

This is an interesting one for me, because I often play this situation the same way. I'm not sure that it is right.

If your opponent is overly aggressive I would call down. Otherwise, I think I am often behind on the turn and the pot isn't big enough to call.

I'm interested in what others have to say about this.

I have to sign up for absolute poker.

My thoughts exactly.

Opponent flips K7 and drags the pot.

Lately I have seen quite a few fish betting or Cr'ing with absolutely nothing but an overcard. Its like they think you are bluffing every hand.

A few days ago at 5/10 I had TT in LP and raised. flop was rags I bet and got 1 caller. Turn was a rag, I got Cr'd by fish. I call it down to see he Cr'd me with a gutshot straight draw on the turn.

Of course he hit his gutshot on the river.
