Re: This wasn\'t in the plan : KK Hand
I would probably just raise the flop, though there are potential advantages to waiting. (Also, part of the reason I like to wait occasionally is that I don't want my opponents thinking if I raise preflop but then just call the flop that always means I have overcards, if they're paying attention. However, enough slowplaying goes on at the table in general that I'd imagine most people are on the lookout for it, at least a little.)
As for the turn, well, that sucks. On the flop, was UTG slowplaying his 77? Was he unsure about his JT? Did he have a gutshot with 98? Or was he just waiting until the turn, like you were, with his AJ? I don't know.
But I think there's enough of a chance that you're ahead or at least have 8 outs (the kings, 7's, and 2's) that I'd probably cold-call [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img].
