two kings
 
400 6max nl. Both have about 400.

The hand before this hand, the villain minraised a limper preflop with JsTc I call in the bb, flop 842 with 2 spades he checked behind, turn Qs I bet 35 into the 25 pot he called and river was another 2 and it went check check.

He raises to 20 this time, I call in the sb with KsKh, bb folds.

Flop QJT with 2 diamonds, i check, pot size is like 45 he bets 125.

I...?

This is an awful flop for kings. This is not a hand to go broke with. I would fold. Why no reraise preflop?

Overpair and OESD??? I cry tears of joy and push. I'm not the best player in the world, so if Im wrong, why?

I do agree with raising pf though.

Because it's very likely to have hit the PFR. You could be nearly dead to AK, behind 2 pair or a set and not having a Kd also doesn't take away one flush card.

Why didn't you lead the flop?

I also don't understand no re-raise preflop.

2x pot bet strange - has he done this before? AQ?

Ick folding and pushing are both legitate options. He probably has two pair and you've got solid pot equity. On the other hand if he has a straight you're in bad shape. Flip a coin.

Because the guy's most likely hand is AK which leaves you drawing to three outs to a chop plus a remote runner runner boat.

We're actually even money against two pair.

the question is how best to get your money in vs his very likely draw/worse pair. the stack sizes make a push a bit uncomfortable, but it cant be terribly wrong. i may even go with the min raise here with the intention of getting the rest on the turn.

Re: two kings
 
I agree that calling on this flop seems bad. The problem is that if we're behind, all of our outs (set or straight) put a four straight on board so it's pretty hard to get paid off. If we just call, I don't see how we expect to make any more money. But I suck at no limit.
