An annoying QK hand

The preflop raiser is decent, but has a wide range and has been isolating the limper who limps every hand. I didn't want to raise the flop or bet the turn, but i don't know what i am supposed to do differently here?

Re: An annoying QK hand

without reads on MP and CO, your PF play is bad.

Re: An annoying QK hand

3bet preflop if your read is that he's raising light.

Why call the turn if you plan on folding the river?

I know, which is why i mentioned that the MP was limping every hand and the CO was liberally isolating him [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (like any ace, any pair 44+, any two cards 9 and over) Guess it wasnt clear in the OP. Given that info, what do you think?

Gutshot.

Also I don't want to come off sounding like a dick, but please don't quote the original post when responding.

definitely my fault. I look for the numbers. silly I know.

I still dont like it. but i completely own that lame first post as moranic

Re: An annoying QK hand

IMO this was the first mistake, 3 betting was better here than CC'ing.

Re: An annoying QK hand

Your river fold doesnt make any sense given your preflop action. While I agree that you are usually behind after the turn c/r, KQ, KJ, a tricky 88 are possible (in decending order or likelyhood) enough to make the river call.

I also never call a rasier with KQo preflop. IMO, that is a really bad hand in this situation. I would fold preflop, but call the river.

Re: An annoying QK hand

CO may be "decent" but he's not "super freaking good" based just on his flop play. If he has you beat he should 3 bet there. No way can I fold this river. And yeah I 3 bet preflop.
