bet more on the turn... river push looks bad unless u think he has KT

Re: hmmm, i just got top two pair, and i want to keep them in the hand
 

bet what you think he can call...prob not all in unless he has k7. IF Bb is aggr. did you consider a small bet to induce a push from a flush draw? or a call from a weak king? k3ish. I use the overbet push all the time but i think im overdoing it in these kinda spots...you look like a genius if he has kt/k7 but you may be giving up alot of value. Just let it tick for a little while like your thinking about how much to bluff or value bet.

what's wrong with 2/3 pot bet?

Re: hmmm, i just got top two pair, and i want to keep them in the hand
 

Hand looks fine until the river. I don't like pushing. I think a smaller value bet would be good. Something about a hundred.

I started writing a lot but then I deleted it because all it comes down to is.... what did you put him on? Your play makes no sense to me.

Re: hmmm, i just got top two pair, and i want to keep them in the hand
 

what i put villain on was a very possible flopped two pair on the flop with a BB type hand K2/K7/27 that slowed down after seeing a possible two pair hand from me on the turn/river. i figured he wanted to see a showdown, and that an overbet of the pot would look suspicious enough to get a call, putting me on a missed draw. i guess it may not be warranted...
