Default 25/50 hand reading

limp in ep, mp raise to 225, someone calls, i call on button with 9h kh, blind calls and so does limper. flop is 4c tc kd, checked to me, i bet 800 into 1150 pot, just BB calls. he is reasonable, on tight sight. we both started with 5k.

turn is rag, check check (anyone like a bet? of what size?). river is Jo, he leads out pot. what do you put him on?

KJc is possible...but it looks more like a missed draw than a monster. still you can't feel too good about your kicker there against a tight opponent...

The most important part in the puzzle (in my opinion, anyways), is villain's call of the preflop raise in the blinds. Assuming he is a tight but decent player, we ought to have a good reason to believe that he wouldn't make that kind of call in the BB with a hand that could easily be dominated, right?

This doesn't automatically put him on a hand, but I think it's a big help in narrowing his holdings.

My initial reaction at the river is AK. KQs maybe. I don't think he can check call the flop with 44, tt, or jj but maybe he can. Maybe he has AcJc.

I like a bet of 1400ish on the turn if a flush draw is a real possibility. Enough to make it a mistake to call with a draw but still giving you room to manoever.

I think the preflop call was a big mistake.

He has a busted flush draw. If hes a tight player and checks, then that usually means he doesnt have anything. Id just call his bet though cuz maybe he was slow playing you. Still i think you ahve him beat.

Why would you ever raise here?

PS. I know there's an answer to this question if you think he has a stronger king, but basically, don't raise. Please.
