Re: K4s on the flop
I'd dump this pre-flop even for half price.
I'd bet the flop. With the pot so small, you actually are sort of protecting your hand against two overcards. (With implied odds I guess they can call, so that's why I said "sort of.") |

Re: K4s on the flop
Folding pre-flop sucks.
I'd bet the flop. |

I'd check and see what happens. I'll often just call in a small pot and donkbet what looks like a good turn card.

Re: K4s on the flop
I'm checking to see where a bet(if one happens) comes from. If there is no bet on the flop, bet any turn card

Re: K4s on the flop
I think this is a pretty good spot to bet.
The pot is small, so a bet protects your hand. You are likely to be ahead, as this likely missed all the "big card" type hands and many of the potential overpairs would have raised pre-flop. Checking here is quite likely to allow the flop to check through and tons of turn cards are cards you don't want to see (if they don't beat you, they'll at least make the hand trickier to play from that point forward). With no one having shown any strength yet, checking-and-seeing isn't good here, in my opinion. I might like that if there were a pre-flop raise or if there were 5 or more players, but here I think betting is definitely the best course of action. And folding pre-flop here is terrible, for anyone advocating that. |

Re: K4s on the flop
Call pre-flop is easy, you can't fold here getting 7-1 plus implied odds.
I generally lead here, you probably have the best hand and you need to protect it. These hands are normally tough to play on the turn. When I'm called in more than 1 spot I generally lead most turn cards here also, with the exception of an A or Spade. I think alot of players like to peel one off and this low flop and will fold their overcards on the turn. If called in only one spot I'm most likely gonna see a showdown. |

And a raise doesn't really tell Hero that he's behind, as anyone with a 5, two spades, or just overcards might raise for the free card or trying to steal the pot vs. Hero's "draw". |

Re: K4s on the flop
For those of you who bet, what is the purpose of your bet? What will you do on the turn if one or two players call your flop bet?
