Default Problem on the turn

With 4 limpers ahead of me, I decide to play the 2-3-K-Q double suited from the button. The flop comes down:

K-K-3 two suits that aren't mine.

SB bets, BB calls, one limper calls, it gets back to me, where I call. Turn is:

5 to complete the flush.

Bet and 2 raises back to me. Should I lay down my Kings full of 3s?

The only hand that beats you is K5. Normal play would be to not fold in this situation i guess, because you can put the other guys on a lower full house or a flush rather than on kings full of fives.. (it also depends on stack size etc if this is pot-limit)

Dude, a full house beats a flush. The fact that the turn might have completed someone else's hand should have sent $$$ dancing through your brain.

Unless you're at the most straightforward table ever I don't see how you can lay this down. I mean-God bless em if they're playing hands which have K5 in them.

Still, I'd put in a raise, or at least call all the way down.

Why dont you raise this on the flop? You have the nuts now, with redraws to better nuts. You raise the SB may 3-bet with 33 or AA or AK an you can get it heads-up.

Put them on a range of hands. Then figure out how likely it is they have it

Is someone raising the nutflush with a paired board?
Is someone raising with just AK? A2? 55?

What hands do you think two people are raising with that you beat here?

Stevo,

You don't have a problem on the turn. You need a better title for your post.

That flush board is the best possible thing that could have happened to you.

Sure you might get beaten by K 5 once in a great while, but I'll take my chances.

I raise this on the turn is if you have position enough to keep everyone in the hand. If you have position, then I pop it here and hope the nut flush pops it back at you.

Then do the same thing on the river.

Dave

Pre-Flop- Fine.
Flop- Raise this flop. You have a bet and 2 calls in front of you, so I dont expect you to be thinning the field much, youll only be increasing the pot. But the big reason is because by raising this, you might get backdoor low draws out of the hand. (hands like A2QJ that might call one bet for the backdoor low draw -- but fold to another)

Turn: 50/50 between raising and calling. But usually Id just make a flat call here. On the river it depends on what the opposition does.

I think you guys are missing the fact that this guy thinks a flush beats a full house. Don't lay this down! Raise! Raise!
