Default Re: KK hand in SB - 25 NL, good sized pot.

I am definitely not saying it was the right play, I was just explaining my reasoning at the time.
My thoughts:
I thought I could push them off at the turn on an uncoordinated board with a big bet and not have to even go to a showdown. The bets they were trading in the first orbit were 2-3 bucks at the most and there was lots of folding on the turn. These seemed to be classic weak type players, playing lots of hands but folding to aggression, unless they had any piece of the flop. This seemed like an opportunity to grow the pot without giving away my hand- a perfect situation for a big pair (or so I thought).

This does not make sense. The way you get money from players who call too much is by betting when you have a good hand, not making them fold. They will give you their money when you bet big preflop with the kings. They will give you their money with they flop TP on a Qxx board. If your plan is to push them around then you dont' need KK to do it.
