confused KK hand
 

this was my first hand at the table, so no reads.
i thought it had a very odd ending.

Re: confused KK hand
 

You are screwed when the button raises the turn. In most cases I would just check the turn since it commonly means a set at this level. Higher up people will be pulling the call-cap line with strong draws as well, but it usually means that you are toast at lower limits.

If he tricks you and takes a free card, it isn't that big of a deal. He wasn't going to fold his flush draw so it only costs you about .6 BB in value if you have the BB beat. If he has a FH or quads, betting costs you .92 BB (remember that you will hit a king and lose ~14% of the time). He will have you beat here far more often then not Imho.

sorry to say this in your thread, but this is like the 5th hand post today that makes no sense.

ask a question, give a read, PLEASE!!

Re: confused KK hand
 

I dont know but buttons flop play indicate a flushdraw imo. But the aggression on the turn tells me he has a good hand. Possibly has you beat with set? I would have played it the same.
