Default Re: K8o + blind steal => ???

i would not steal here.

i would check behind on the flop, and then just call the turn. it's true that sometimes you'll let a worse hand catch up, but there aren't too many hands that have significant outs. this line lets you keep the pot small and extract money from a bluff or a J, but lose the minimum against a 5 or bigger K.

value bet the river if he checks it to you and expect to get called by a J.
