I am in the CO with KQs. SB seems decent, hasnt played anything stupid and has shown down solid hands. Had a good sized stack until he lost a large pot when opponent sucked out on river.
I took a lot of flak from a couple of seemingly good players at the table (one was villian in this hand) for what i did with this hand. How would you play it? I am mostly concerned with my turn call. thought about a healthy raise but decided not to.. reasoning later. Also how much do you bet on river? Do you ever check behind?
