Default K5s on the button, 6-max

MP in this hand sees about 75% of flops and is very tentative postflop. She spends a lot of time thinking about her decisions and it seems like she folds too much. UTG is decent.

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $0.50.
UTG calls, MP calls, CO (poster) checks, Hero calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls, MP calls, CO calls.

Turn: (7 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP thinks for a while and bets</font>, CO calls, Hero calls, UTG calls.

Raise the turn. Make UTG pay to call to the river with ace-high.

I am like 99% sure I am behind a bigger K on the turn.

Edit: I'm 99% sure she has a K. It could be any K, really.

Then why raise the river? You're not folding a better K. You have more equity on the turn -- that's the best place to stick in a raise (and I think you need to do so somewhere).

Preflop is a little loose for my taste as well.

To buy the pot in a likely chop situation.

I say again -- you are not folding a K.

I prefer going for the overcall from UTG.

That overcall is probably going to be worth a lousy half a bet.

If I am indeed chopping this pot, I only have to make this person who folds too much fold about 1 in 12 times to make up for that half a missed bet.

I do think MP folded a K. Let's not give our opponents too much credit.

Let's not give our opponets being complete retards either. NO K IS FOLDING. NEVER.

My guess is that MP either has 79/9T of diamonds/clubs.
