Not taking pfraises seriously against any unknown player is a very dangerous habit to get into no matter what the level. I fold preflop.

Agreed.

Like others have said: fold pf (or 3-bet) [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

But to your actual question, I would raise this flop.

Not to beat the dead pre-flop horse here, but what? People raise less at lower levels, not more.

On the flop I raise or fold. I don't want to call it down and I don't want to pay multiple bets on the expensive streets.

not raising or folding preflop leads to tough, very marginal decisions on flops like these. And I don't think many people are comenting on the flop because its a spot that we're probably never going to be in.

Edit: Also a cold call is even worse at .5/1 than it is at higher levels. This is because unknowns are more passive PF making their PFR range even smaller and increasing the possibility of you being dominated.

On the flop you've got to fold or raise i think.

like a Q7 example in SSH i think, on a T7x flop i believe, although this is shorthanded and lots of people play aces... So no... it isn't like the SSH example at all duh.

Anyhow you've got raise to protect/Value if you think you're ahead.

I guess you could put forward an arguement that its killing his bluff, but your not way ahead and giving cards away can screw you.

i.e. a queen on the turn will suck.

How could you possibly cold call this? Aggghhh this is awful. 3-bet or fold. And I don't really see how you could want to 3-bet here, unless you already have a read on the villain. KT is dominated 6 ways to sunday, and "at this level" people are actually tighter with their raises then in bigger games.

Raise the flop if you're gonna play, though.

I would be more likely to 3-bet KT at a higher level than at .5/1 party. I don't see why you play KT on the flop or after the flop.

What range do you give this dude? I think almost every hand beats you.

I fold preflop, fold flop.
