KK on monochrome flop

Played fine on all streets as far as I can tell. If the flop had come 3 spades with an ace and two opponents who've called your raise, I agree you'd be in trouble. But with the overpair, either of your opponents may give you action with one spade or top pair, straight draw. Still slightly more ways for you to be ahead than behind right now, but you certainly don't wanna give 'em anything cheap. Good push.

looks fine to me, allin on flop is automatic

If Hero's flop had come AsQsJs against two callers you wouldn't think about laying it down and living to fight?

Cool - just making sure the automatic flop push referred to this particular flop and not a monochrome A-high flop that you shared no suit with.

Your 2nd example flop is one of the worst possible. I think the guideline is basically to do it if youve got an overpair since it's so rare they'll have the made flush here. Even a JJx/QQx flop might be best to push, not sure about those though.

edit: flop given as example is worst not example is worst
