KK 15/30 at Stars

Here's when it gets tricky. Either one of them could have a flush draw, or a straight, CO could have lots of possible hands here. Either he already made his set or he's playing it real strong with TT/JJ/QQ/AA. Depending on your read on his previous plays, I guess folding isn't bad since the turn and river could cost you a ton and you have to call 2-cold indicating someone has a real had here against your KK. I'll probably check this and see what develops, the board has too many draws. If the turn card is blank or helps my K high flush, I'm betting out and calling to a raise and folding on the river. His turn raise has to incidcate a set or AA with a flush. If he's real aggressive and will play TT the same way then calling would be an option. Any thoughts?

KK is very powerful indeed but after the flop those stats changes so you'll have to readjust your play depending on what flops. After reading the tread over again, I don't think CO does have a big pair since he would have capped it, he had position too. AA/QQ/JJ/TT is probably out of the question. He could have mid pair, 88/99,TT(doubt it) or AJ with the A being a club which is why he's 3-betting on the flop hoping to take you out if all you had was overcards like AK.

Without knowing if CO will raise again, betting out would be standard to eliminate draws. Once you get a caller, raiser, and a 3-bet which comes back 2cold to you I'll probably just call here. Capping here will not get you much value since you have two loose players chasing draws.

1)If the turn card is a club I'm betting out, if I get raised by someone else either than the CO I'm calling once. If I'm 3-bet, its an auto fold.

2)If its a trash hand I'm going to check and raise the CO to make the other two cold-call. If CO 3-bets me I'm folding unless he's super aggressive postflop.

3)If CO raises again after a club comes your probably looking for an Ac or a set.

Any thoughts on these?

This is almost the exact same situation as the previous post, I would cap and bet the turn if you get reraised on the turn then you can start thinking about folding otherwise you are playing this too passive

Next time you feel a little weak, don't fold. I would call and lead a blank-ish turn and go from there.
