Semi-Bluffing

[MrG]

I normally wouldn't bet on fifth here with three other players and just my KK but thought my board warranted a semi-bluff. Sixth is a dream card for the semi-bluff so I bet again. Comments on all streets appreciated.

I don't think there's anything else to do here. All very standard.

[Andy B]

Looks good to me.

[CarlosChadha]

I recommend value bets on 5th & 6th instead of semi-bluffs.

[Roland]

Yeah, why would you want to check 5th and 6th with kings here?
