KJo in MP1 - How would you have played this ?
 

This seemed like a fairly typical PP .50/$1 table, but no reads so far. I am interested to know if other players would have played this hand the same way or not.

Cap the flop

So you lost to 72o?

Results will follow, but villain did not have 72o lol.

Why would you cap the flop? For value?

What kind of hands to "typical" players at party 3 bet the flop with? I can't imagine anyone getting this excited over a worse king.

Horrible.

I'm not sure, but I would be tempted to raise this preflop.

Re: KJo in MP1 - How would you have played this ?
 

probably would have folded preflop. i hate KJo. seems i always get screwed.

seeing as UTG+1 first, posted in UTG, and didn't raise, it is difficult to put him on a hand being an unknown, so there really can be no hand analysis really.

i would have raised the turn and called down to a 3-bet after that.

I'll eat my hat if he ain't holding K7s or 77

Re: KJo in MP1 - How would you have played this ?
 

I propably would have played it just like you did.

I would not cap the flop.

Lately i have lost some pots in these types of hands, cause the villains have showed something like 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] at the showdown.

sorry - I want to add Kx of clubs (not KQ though) to this list too, forgot the flush - and because of that, I'd see the river cheap.

Shoulda folded Preflop though. KJ is only good in late and you're first or got one or two callers from middle onwards - I'd say - and you'd raise.
