Out of Pos KK

I'm usually a big fan of great big overbets preflop when it looks like it's developing like a multi-way deal. After that, unless a high pair or Ace flops push and live with the consequences. Anyone disagree?

Lately I've been making big preflop overbets with AA and KK in a multi-way pot. The idea is to keep only big pairs, AK, and AQ around. I don't want small pairs or suited connectors sticking around to catch a great flop. It's been working well against smaller stacks who are willing to gamble (which is fine with me). I don't mind taking down the pot preflop since you are usually way ahead or way behind on the flop anyway.

I think the preflop bet is fine (about pot sized). The flop bet is fine. I would probably push on the turn. Any decent bet and you will pretty much be pot committed anyways. I think that you should have at least bet something here. Was there a particular reason you checked it? After checking the turn, the river check was fine.

Bet half pot on the turn and call a push, check/call river (ugh horrible river).

Because you feel a draw could come over the top of a half pot bet on the turn, then make a half pot bet and call a push, because you are ahead of his hand range.

Yayyyyyyy me.

Raise much bigger out of the blinds with that many limpers. And then play it FAST. I'm happy to get my stack in here with an overpair against someone who just flat calls the flop.
