Flopped top trips no kicker
10 handed PP 1/2
MP1 is a maniac, very aggressive even with nothing. MP2 is aggressive, slightly loose (35VPIP), usually has something but will sometimes bet scary boards. Hero in BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG, UTG+2, MP1, MP2 all call, Button raises, SB calls, Hero calls, all limpers call Flop (14 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, UTG+2 checks, MP1 bets, MP2 raises, Button folds, SB folds, Hero...? I was going for a check-raise of the button here, do I 3-bet? There's a bet (albeit from maniac who likely has nothing) and a raise, into the preflop raiser. I could see MP2 having a spade draw, though. I realize that calling preflop here is questionable. |

Re: Flopped top trips no kicker
Obviously you should be folding this hand preflop, however since you didn't I'll throw in my $.02.
I think you're in a tough spot on the flop. I'd probably call the flop and bet the turn as long as a scare card doesn't fall. |

Re: Flopped top trips no kicker
lol... Funny preflop.
Anyhow, I call here and then check/raise the turn to a non-spade i think. |

Re: Flopped top trips no kicker
I'd three-bet the flop, to try and get the pot head up against the raiser, and to try and take control of the hand. If he caps, call it, then check/call the turn and the river, barring running spades.
If he just calls your three-bet, lead out on anything but a spade. |

Re: Flopped top trips no kicker
You have no kicker and you're trying for a check-raise? This is a catastrophe, because now it's two bets back to you because one of those people has a King or they're both bluffing. How can we tell? We don't. You should have bet out to proteect your hand.

Does anyone else think that calling getting 13:1 here is OK? |

Hero is way ahead of everyone almost always against a large field. Fearing another K is rediculous just because it's bet and raised on the flop. I wouldn't fear another K unless it's capped and raised on the turn. |

Re: Flopped top trips no kicker
Calling preflop is ugly. K2o is an awful hand, especially against a raise (even half price) and against so many. That being said, you got incredibly lucky with this flop. I would bet this out. The one person you figure will bet would be Button, and if you C/R him then you'll blow away the hands you have in bad shape. As it played, I would go ahead and 3-bet in your position. The likelihood of someone holding the last K is very slim. Lead the turn. If MP2 raises again on a turn blank, I might begin to consider him holding the last K.
