Re: interesting KK hand in a $33
His river call is very confusing! What was your read on him - ultra passive? if so, I'd put him on a QJ or possibly a weak, suited A.
Edit - I think you need to bet the turn t500. If he calls, check the river. |

Re: interesting KK hand in a $33
Any reads on villain?
In any case, I'm betting the turn as well. If he still calls, then I can check behind on the river. As you played it, I would probably check behind the river. Weak, but without a read I don't see any reason to continue, as I can't see him calling down with anything less than an Ace. He could very well have called your raise with a weak ace, even A4, and is afraid to bet it because of the river 5 which would kill his two pair if you had a bigger Ace, but happy to call a small amount with it. |

I only have 500 left after the 500 bet, so I'm calling if he pushes and I'd expect him to know this. I bet the river for value because I didn't think he had an ace. If so, what kind of ace would he have had? I would think a pair that's on the board with an ace kicker. If so, then he made 2 pair on the turn and I'd expect him to lead the river. I put him on a PP or some kind of jack with a decent kicker. I purposefully made a weak river bet because I wanted a call. |

Re: interesting KK hand in a $33
i like how you played the hand, and it was a good bet on the end, i definitely can see jacks making that call there, ,or even other pairs.
