What a river card. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] If this were a HU pot (the BB defended, checkraised the turn, bet the river) I call and hope that the villian has a medium-high pocket pair. In this hand the BB's actions are consistant with a draw and the river card + his bet makes me believe he has me beat. Without a read I fold the river and kick the cat if I folded a winner.

I think you might have a fold, but I'd have to play with the percentages.

Assume Button never folds AA or better and always folds a worse hand if you call.

Win=1/12.7=.079 is the approximate breakeven point.

Is P(A)*P(B)&gt;.079?

P(A)=chance BB is betting a worse hand and P(B)=chance that Button has a worse hand than KK.

I would 3-bet this turn because I know I have button beat, I'm actually more worried that BB might have a 3.
