Default Re: KK in trouble ... or not?

[..] he could have 77 or 99 but this mentality is just too weak-tight for me

[/ QUOTE ]
Since when has being weak/tight been a problem?? If I fold here I still have an average stack, blinds are relatively low, and with my skill-advantage (it's a $10 buy-in) I'm still in great shape.

My point is we have to consider 99 and 77 as a part of villain's possible range of hands.

I ran pokerstove on a possible holding of AQ, KQ, 99 & 77, and interesting enough I'm a big favorite ... even when I include the possibility of QQ. If I remove KQ (probably prudent) it's pretty much a coinflip, which of course means push with the available pot odds.

Just my bad day ... I pushed, he flipped QQ over and I missed my 2 outs ... duh!

Best,
