Re: Dark checkraised w/KK -- 5handed 20/40 at the Muckleshoot
[ QUOTE ]
There are passive donks in the Muck 20/40 game that I will take the smooth-call/raise-turn line against (i.e. the majority) but there are some that will see right through it. I put villain in the see right through it camp.

I can see that, but there are two reasons I still take the line reasonably often
1) If he has the flush draw, he is stuck calling the raise no matter how obvious it is that you have an overpair.
2) The kind of guy who is willing to lay down a decent pair to the turn raise might not pay off all the way if you three-bet the flop anyway. Similarly, if he has total air, you were going to lose him by three-betting the flop and betting the turn anyway, so you may make more money be playing rope-a-dope for a while and letting him bet the turn before revealing the strength of your hand.
