Color by numbers: It\'s gonna be a looooooong ride...
 

UTG is loose, slightly on the passive side. The first coldcaller is even looser, and very passive.

This may not be as straightforward as it seems, but I call till the river and hope to catch the 2nd nuts? I think they are good often enough.

Why didn't you bet the flop?

Because I'm reasonably sure I don't have the best hand and I'm getting raised on this flop, I dunno, about 100% of the time?

But don't you still have a lot of equity? And wouldn't UTG raising potentially knock out some 3 and 4-outers?

Just asking.

i would start crying, pull up my panties and call until i hit the 2nd nuts, and lose.

if you raise, it is doubtful that this is going to get capped -- they are just going to let you lead the turn into them. so there is no information to be gained by 3betting. even if it does all it will tell us is that UTG is charging with his set of kings or a flush or a flush draw. we're reasonably certain MP has a made flush.

it's obvious the question is call or fold so let's call and see the turn. we have decent equity and an out to the nuts [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

How much do I care about knocking out a 3 or 4 outer when I'm behind?
