KK on an ugly board... no action

is that turn bet terrible? after making the bet i'm realzing i'll only get called by a better hand... checking down is seeming like the best option i guess... should i have bet the flop?

That is like the worst possible board for pocket kings.

Yea, with that board and two callers you are definitely in check fold mode.

but would representing J there be an option? or is the shorty too committed to fold an A?... on a normal hand getting called like that i would assume he had an A... but i got lucky and he had QQ Lol

[Mr. Sakuraba]

Maybe its just me, but I like to make a 3/4 size bet here on the flop to see if anyone has an A or J so i can get away from the hand without too much lost.I hate the check around on flop.

betting 2/3 of the pot here commits the villain. The pot is too big to [censored] around with here, and Im checking. I fold to action from button and if BB bets I pay him off very angrily.
