People are stupid idiots on partypoker. I would bet the flop, Id bet the turn, and I'd call the checkraise and then call the river. I'd be unhappy about calling the river but I'd ask myself "would some random partypoker idiot play a king like this", and the answer would usually be "no".

I definitely agree with Curtains on this one, and I'm really surprised by those advocating fold and/or check the turn. Really? Blind-on-blind and you're worried about being up against the case King? I'll happily get all my chips to the middle here on any street and see how it works out.

I love the way you played the hand too. You get that flop checked to you and you overbet the pot (slightly). Opponent calls. There's no way he's giving you credit for having the K. Then he check-raises you on the turn, possibly holding a Q, but I figure mainly just trying to take you off the hand by representing the K himself. Your smooth-call is great because it is super weak and probably registers to him as "I got caught trying to buy this pot, but I'm too poor of a player to fold when I get check-raised." It almost certainly induced his push on the river, which you happily call. If he really had a K, he would have bet less on the river in an attempt to value bet his hand (and get called)/induce you to come over the top with a bluff. He would have been scared to death you would fold to an all-in in level #1 and we would have gotten no further value for his monster. I agree with Curtains - I just don't see the Party crowd playing that way with a superior K.
