I was wondering what's my playe here on the flop.
Party Poker (10 handed) converter Preflop: I limped first in from middle position with with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Bad player (BP)called. cut-off (CO) called, Solid player (SP) on the button raised. The SB called. I called. Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> SB checks, I bet, BP raise, SP immediately re-raise, CO folds, and SB cold-call 3-bet. What would you do in this spot? Also, did I play right by betting the flop? Thanks |

I also hate your flop bet. Check/raise. [/ QUOTE ] I don't understand the c/r here? We have a dominant hand that we want to extract value from. The button was the pre-flop raiser, so we trap most of the field by leading the flop and hoping for a late position raise. |

But you should have a better chance of extracting the maximum by checking trip kings on this board! Especially given that OP did not raise pre-flop. |

If you want to extract the maximum, is it a bad play to bet, get raised, and re-raise?

But in a multi-way pot, you want to create action. One other thing you (and everyone else?), might be overlooking: If the pre-flop raiser has a king and no one else does, you're bet accomplishes the worst possible thing. That is, it gets you heads-up with a hand you're in trouble to. |

I limped first in from middle position [/ QUOTE ] I stopped reading right there. Okay, actually I didn't. But the words "I limped first in" should rarely be written, but add "from middle position" in there and it should *never* be written. Anyway, on the flop I think you have an easy checkraise. As it stands, maybe someone has the case K with a better kicker, but you can't really fold, especially with several outs to a boat (even against 33 you have 7 outs). |

to those who like checkraising. why is checkraising better than betting or checkcalling?

[/ QUOTE ] Check/raising might be best against aggressive thinking players who might now misread your hand (i.e. they would expect trip kings to slow play and might now give excessive action). Otherwise, I like check/calling. |

"Check/raising might be best against aggressive thinking players who might now misread your hand"
Check-raising with the board of KK3 is less misreading than betting, IMO. |
