Re: Playing on a paired board..
Itīs a small pot, and if you decide to play you have to come in with a raise. Meaning that you will pay 2 SB to win 6, with just a TP crappy kicker with 3 more people yet to act and no idea where you are at...
And with no read on SB being a complete donkey, what exactly does he got that you beat? He is leading out into 5 people on a paired rainbow board... You have crappy position in a small pot with a marginal holding. I say fold and wait for a better spot to invest your money...

I would fold on the flop... [/ QUOTE ] With no reads on the player, I think folding to the three bet is a good option. But folding immediately seems horrible to me.

[/ QUOTE ] Folding to a three-bet is even worse, FWIW. Who isn't going to three-bet you here with KQ-KT? It's clear as day that you don't have a 9. A lot of people will three-bet hands your tied with your hands you beat as well. No, I think folding initially would be a much better play than folding to a three-bet. -James
