I think this is a clear fold p/f. That said I don't like the raise on the flop, surprised you got everyone to fold there...that said turn and river look good.

I disagree. You're going to need to give a more detailed explanation to convince me.

I just would not like to play k4o in a multiway pot. Could easily be dominated here and the hand has very little value. This could get 3 bet or capped preflop as there are still players left to act. This seems clear to me, can you please
elaborate on this call?

I don't think the amount of mistakes these players make compensate for the call still. The hand I believe is just too trashy.

Preflop: fold. I think that you need to give us more of a reason why this hand is playable, and not the other way around. 13 pfr isn't THAT high. You are in bad shape against- any pair that is raising here, a bunch of better kings, Ax. Wait for a better spot against this guy. You have good position on him, wait for a hand and 3 bet him. You don't want to be playing a multiway pot with K4o.

This is just such a weak hand to play against a limper, a semiLAG and some potentially loose blinds. What sort of flop are you hoping for?

Re: K4o
 
why not bet the turn when you have fold and suckout equity and likely get a free showdown if called? easy fold to a raise as you are probably not getting pushed of the best hand. plus you are getting your money in when you can still improve. i guess you are trying to encourage a bluff from Ace high?

Re: K4o
 
Some of my thoughts, quick:

- I'm getting 6-to-1 immediate on my call in a pot where I've already contributed 1.5SBs to the pot

- I'm not worried about these players raising behind me. Which probably pushes my odds up to 8- or 9-to-1

- The raiser is a lag and could be isolating a weak PF limper with a wide range - the chance that I'm dominated isn't as large from this player

I'm not saying that PF is perfect or not debateable - but I don't think it's as clear-cut as some are stating. The turn check was, in fact, an attempt to induce a river bluff.

Its true you're up against on donkeys, but you're just not getting enough PF. Fold.
