I fold preflop. If you feel the need to play it, i think the flop is fine, but then i check behind on the turn. Let him bluff at the pot on the river with a mid pair. He could also have AK and is looking to play a small pot (i.e. check calling you down)

For this reason, i dont like playing this to a raise.

Flop bet looks good, and he stuck around. I'd continue to go with the aggression here, and put him all in. Hard to say what he has there, he only minraised before the flop which could mean anything. You got TPGK and are ahead of alot of possible hands right now.

Of course, I tend to be overaggressive sometimes from what I am told, and if villian had me beat here, I'd end up giving up alot of chips in this spot. But if you check behind, he is likely to put all his chips in on the river anyways, so checking behind isn't much different if you think he would call you in either spot. My gut goes with putting him in now instead of later.

If I had to put him on one hand, I'd say he also has KQ. But you can't really tell what he has, so I'd check.

But there is a difference. On the turn, the villain does not call all of his chips off with crap. On the river, after you showed weakness, he can try to push you off your hand with a middle pair or even QJs. Then you can take all of his chips.

Oh, forgot to mention this is Pot Limit.

[Pasterbator]

With the size of the pot right now, he will still be able to push his last ~500 in on a bluff.

So we've all agreed that checking the turn is best?

Check again.

Now that you were confused about your flop, turn and river play enough to post it, do you see why calling a raise with KQ was a major error?
