Default Re: Hand...

I think the flop call needs some discussion. How often do you not cap here?

When I get c/r'd like the SB did here I almost always cap for information. That play has been a flush/straight draw just as often as it has been a set and I'm much more comfortable making this fold if i cap the flop.

That being said, I may be biased because I have seen the turn card - but I'm 99% sure i cap the flop here.

If you know that the king is going to pair on the turn in advance I might agree.

I like waiting to the turn to raise (almost any card, obviously the king is an exception). We punish him on the more expensive street with our pretty strong hand. Furthermore, you said that you cap because you can fold later. I think it would really suck if you capped the flop, the flush came, and he semi-bluff check-raised us with his Kx with the flush draw. Granted, it doesn't happen too much, but this is an agro opponent, and if it happens with any frequency, we are giving up a pretty decent pot.
