Why the hell aren't you raising that turn? Really weak by you IMO

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

Huh? Did you put him on exactly KK?

Raise the turn.

WTF?

Bet/Raise/Re-Raise Flop
Bet/Raise/Re-Raise Turn
Bet/Raise/Re-Raise River

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

I am definitely raising the turn. I am also capping to a reraise and depending on my read of the villian possibly just calling the river.

yes

Fold pre-flop because there aren't enough callers.

I'd 3-bet the flop.

As is, definitely raise the turn. If he 3-bets, I'd cap and then call the river if he still bets.

There are many many hands besides KK that he could reasonably have here. And if he has 66, well [censored] that.

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

Please raise the turn and don't stop betting for the rest of the hand.

No reason to fear 66 here.

KK, although a possibility, is a lot less likely than AK.

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

I haven't read the replies yet but here we go...

Fold pre-flop unless the table is extremely loose and passive.

Flop: 3 bet seems like a good option, especially if you are likely to chicken out on a raise with a turn spade or king. Which seems very likely that you would chicken out.

Turn: Cap

River: Bet if checked to, call if bet into. Bet/call a CR.

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

I routinely limp suited connectors second in from the CO. Of course, I also routinely raise &amp; cap for value when I flop trips and turn a full house with them.

I shudder to think how many bets you missed here if he was holding something like A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Kx, AA, or worse yet, A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. And he's holding one of those hands (or something else that he'll pay off with) far more often than he's got KK or 66.

Re: Monsters under the bed?
 

Same as what most everyone else said. I fold preflop. If you slowplay flop it should only be to get in tons of bets on the turn.
