Default Critique my \"smooth call\"

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, CO calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, CO calls, SB calls.

Flop: (12 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero calls, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, MP3 folds, CO calls, SB calls.

Turn: (12.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, CO calls, SB calls.

River: (21.50 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, CO calls, SB calls.

Final Pot: 30.50 BB

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
SB has 5h 8c (full house, eights full of kings).
Hero has Ks Kc (four of a kind, kings).
CO has 8s Qc (full house, eights full of kings).
Outcome: Hero wins 30.50 BB. </font>



Hey guys,
I know I risked wasting bets here but original flop bettor was a LAG so I knew he could have a K or small pair in addition to the possible 8 so I figured I'd smeeth call and hope someone did have a third 8. They both did, which was gravy. Anyone else try a smooth call in this spot???

I would play it the same.

An early raise would have driven out players, and with the flush draw on the board, an LAG itching to raise it up and someone possibly holding an eight in the hole, I would be looking to build the pot here since Kings full is a monster hand.

Good play.
