Insane..or standard?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em (NL$25) (10 handed) link

MP2 ($24.25)
MP3 ($21.45)
Hero ($47.70)
Button ($24.65)
SB ($7.00)
BB ($20.50)
UTG ($17.95)
MP1 ($25.00)

Preflop: Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
4 folds, Hero raises to $1.00, 1 folds, SB calls $0.90, BB calls $0.75.

Flop: ($3.00) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB bets $0.50, BB calls $0.50, Hero raises to $4.00, SB folds, BB calls $3.50.

Turn: ($11.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets $2.00, Hero raises all-in ($42.70), BB raises all-in ($13.50).

River: ($69.70) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players, 2 all-in)

Final Pot: $69.70.

I pushed on the turn as opposed to potting it because villian would have been pot committed anyway for the river.

looks good.

maybe consider raising a little more pf, simply to get more value out of KK.

standard rule is 3-4x bb + 1bb for each limper.

I thought I followed that rule here?

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] NP thanks for ur reply to my hand post. I guess I'm just dissapointed I got busted by a set (55) in this situation. I suppose on the long term though Im getting called by weaker overpairs more than I am by sets. Meh.

As someone said in another post laying down KK/AA isn't a good line in NL25. Once you get to NL100, it becomes analysis of the hand and such. Keep trekin'.
