KK on a connected flop - what should I do?
I wonder if this is an easy decision for the vets around here.
2nd hand of the tourney, no read on anyone yet. $50 + 5 NL party SNG. Everyone still has ~ 1000 chips. Blinds 10/15. I get KK in late position. two limpers to me. I make my standard 4 X BB raise of 60. The blinds fold, the two limpers call. 3 to the flop: 7-8-9, rainbow. To my mild surprise, EP bets out 100. To my greater surprise, MP guy then raises to 350. I know my decision here is raise or fold. Comments? |

I don’t think anyone has hit a st8 here but your probably beat by two pairs in this situation. Raising to 60 isn't going to get those people holding 9T, or 89 to throw away their hands. I'd fold it.

MP has to have at least two pair but trips or a straight are more likely.
This is one to fold. Tim |

Yea, I think this is a fold here. However, its worth a note that EP is betting top pair or a draw and MP could easily have a higher PP TT or JJ giving him a nice draw. Considering the tournament structure, however, I think you can fold here.

Could be up against a set, don't think a made straight is gonna raise with the rainbow flop....probably a good fold, shows the advantage of having position

2nd hand, no knowledge of your players. Fold and in my opinion it isn't close, even with the party crazies.
One of them has 2 pair on that board much more often than not. One bet, different story, but the 100 bet and 350 raise means your one pair is probably beat. |
