Re: Interesting KK hand
Reads would be nice. You have to 3 bet the flop. There's a lot of value that you left behind there. You pretty much have the nuts against any sane player's pf capping range.
Bet the turn for...

Re: PP10 - TPTK runs into CR
I play this the same. Given your read on BB, it's safe to say we're almost always beat. After you raised his flop donk, he still check-raises to trap CO. Still, I can't lay down TPTK on a pretty...

If you are going to check the turn then why not check-3bet? MP is likely going to call. Button seems to have a clue based on his stats. No way he calls the raise if he doesn't have a flush and was...

Re: ATo river discision..
Bet-fold. You bet for value because there's a wide range of worse hands that could call you. A lower ace, a pocket, some pair, etc. It's unlikely that a worse hand will raise (a bluff), especially...

Re: Question for 10/20 players
I play 4 tables comfortably. 6 for 6max is where I feel like I start making more suboptimal decisions. Plus I could 4 table forever, and 6 tables burns me out pretty fast.

You can bet and MP will fold his terrible holdings (J5, whatever). If he calls or raises, you don't really get any information. He could do it...
