K3 s0000ted... spewing chips or classic SSH?

Villian is 53/3/1.2 and prone to bet when he should check/call, and really, seems to hate his fold button pre-flop, but can be pused post-flop. Others in the hand are weak-loose. I've really never made this flop play before a week or two ago, and am trying to gauge how far to take my Ed Miller routine. From what I can tell, this is pretty standard (as long as I have the backdoor flush draw to go with bottom pair good kicker & best position).

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (7 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, 1 fold, Hero calls, CO calls, Button calls, 1 fold, BB checks.

Flop: (5.50 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero raises, CO folds, Button folds, BB folds, UTG calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.

Anyone betting this turn? I doubt MHIG at this point.

River: (4.75 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG bets, Hero raises, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 8.75 BB

Other than not liking preflop, I like the whole thing.

I think your preflop limp is too loose. I save the suited kings for late position with a few bad limpers.

Understandable. With CO and Button having 60+/0/0.5 type stats each, I figured I could expand my limp range slightly in semi-late position. Table average VP$IP was in excess of 40 at this point, and we were routinely seeing flops 6 handed. Still hate the limp?

Eh, I think I'd still save it for a better spot. I think the rest of the hand is ok though.

"... spewing chips or classic SSH?"

Basically one and the same.

I like the last 2 streets, I hate the first 2.

Yeah, me too. I really like where he got lucky and spiked a K. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Go back to SSH and find an example where Ed suggests protecting a hand this weak for *a pot this small*. You can do it by skimming because Ed was so good about putting in pot sizes.

backdoor flush draw and bottom pair, I'm continuing to the turn with this hand, and what's wrong with driving out people?
