Default Re: First NL Post: Calling W/ TP vs Big River Bet

Fold PF, but if you don't...

Flop bet has to be bigger... Remember, a bet of less than half the pot is giving him almost 4-1 odds to call with a FD, which makes it correct. Your bet should be somewhere in the $4-5 range.

Certainly don't 3 bet the flop - call his minraise and see what comes on the turn, but based on this action I don't think he's on a FD. It's looking like a AA, a miracle KK set, or AK.

Based on that read, I'm going to check/fold the turn. Played as you did, though, you obviously believe you're ahead and the same rule applies - bet enough so that it's incorrect to call with a draw. Should be in the $12-17 range.

All told, though, you save yourself a lot of money by not playing KQ into a raise.
