Default Re: could (should) i have got away from this?

Maybe this is a limit play, but I have heard that your call is not that bad. In limit, you are getting the correct odds to call and catch a king if your opponent isn't playing AA or a better king. That is in limit though.

For No Limit, if you feel you can outplay your opponent post-flop, you can call some questionable hands. This was an unfortunate flop for you, given your opponent's bad preflop raise holding. If you are going to call in NL with hands like K5, you should be very good at identifying when you have hit your hand and are still behind. That is a very important part of "outplaying your opponent". Very few players are good at this, so it is usually a mistake.

i hope you aren't implying that there is anyone on earth that would be able to correctly get away from this hand on the flop with these chip stacks. Let's leave that sort of "looking into your soul" fantasy for the guy on "tilt".
