Re: K4s BB Defense - Good/Bad?
If SB was raising first in I think you could be a little more confident that this was a pure steal attempt. Still, a button limping in certainly smells like weakness, so if SB is a thinking player he will be trying to isolate here on a pretty wide range of hands.
So, I like the PF call.
The flop play is standard against 2 opponents, with 9 outs to the nuts and 4 more to the 2nd nut straight, you have a pretty big equity edge here.
I'm torn on the turn play. SB's check makes me very suspicious, and getting check/raised would kind of suck here. As you played it, it worked out well and got you to a free showdown. Still, I think I like check/calling the turn and check/folding the river UI.
I'd love to hear other opinions on the turn and river line.
