turn check is good b/c of the flop bet, and i guess the river check is right as well, given the same thing.

Problem #1. Don't call with the K-7. You're just asking for trouble, especially from early position.

Problem #2. I think you have to fold this hand when it gets 3 raises on the flop.

Your check on the turn was good. Take free shot at catching a 7.

You have to check the river too. My guess is that maybe SB or UTG are looking to check raise a set.

A strange hand, I think you just have to check/fold after the flop and hope your Kings are good.

Thanks, MikeyEdge (and Slickterp also) for answering my post. Yes, I was way out of position to play the K7 suited.
Thanks for reminding me (as Slickterp also did in a different post).

I was lucky - I did win 11 BB. The other three (oddly) all
ended up with a pair of queens, whereas I had the pair of
kings. Lucky that time - the next ten or twenty times I tried that, I guess I wouldn't be so lucky!
Thanks again, guys.
MP1 had QsJc.
SB had Qc7s.
UTG had QhTh. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
