Default Re: KK line check

First off, I like to raise more with limpers in ahead of me, especially in a loose game which you said this was. I would have raised to ~$16 and gone from there.

Next, against a player who has been pushing hard and not showing anything down, I probably make a stand here. I don't think he would push so hard with QQ/JJ/22/55 in this situation. The turn bet is a serious overbet which seems a bit much to me if the villain has a real monster*. I think you see A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or a similar hand here pretty often.
