Pocket kings and the board pairs
 
I've only been at the table a couple of orbits. BB doesn't seem too bad, not too good. Slightly loose, pretty passive. The rest of the table is ordinary.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 max, 9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $1.
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, UTG calls, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP3 calls.

Is the cap too much? I'm figuring BB for top pair, marginal kicker, and everybody else caught a piece of the board and is just hanging on for dear life in what is going to be a big pot.

Turn: (13.25 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, MP3 checks, Hero ?

Oh, no. The board pairs and everybody goes underground. I can't decide whether to bet and fold to a c/r, bet and call a raise, bet and 3-bet a raise or what.

Anyone wanna jump in?

If BB just filled up it doesnt make sense (not that most of what you see makes sense) for him to checkraise, so I'd probably bet.

I'm showing down this hand in all likelihood.

Bet, call a raise, and call any non [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] river. Raise if you fill up.

I am too passive, I know that and I am working on it, but I check here. He 4 bet the flop, he could have a set that just boated. I would check, and call any river bet, assuming a club doesn't come out.

Bet, in some ways that's a good turn card for you.

I think pf cap is fine, and I would bet this flop.

What I did, and what happened next
 
...<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP3 calls.

River: (17.25 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, MP3 checks, Hero ?

I bet the turn, and didn't lose anybody. Ugh.

Final board: Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

What to do on the river? I don't want to kill one of Wookie's kittens, and I would surely call if I bet and were raised, but I also don't want to pick any puke-chunks out of my keyboard, and I feel like I'm being set up by one of these donks...er, players...so I'm REALLY inclined to check closing the action and take the free showdown.
