this hand is a textbook example of how preflop mistakes compound themslves extremely rapidly.

please explain...what preflop mistake? Should he not have raised?

OOP w/ offsuit paint is not worth the building of a pot with a hand that features a large amount of reverse implied odds. even if 1 or 2 hands fold you're still OOP and putting in an EXTRA 1.25bb (pf raise+flop continuation bet) when you'll be the one paying off if you hit vs. completing and evaluating on the flop.

this is an instanc eof pot control where if it is +ev to raise, its very very slightly +ev.

if it isn't +ev, its likely quite costly.

I didn't think it was correct to raise here with KQos and that many limpers, but thank you for explaining in a clear, concise manner WHY it wasn't correct.

And thanks for posting, D...your hand disections are always worth reading and I always seem to learn something new.
