I probably check again. But if you want to bet make it $80 or something in the nearhood.

Sticking in a 1/2 pot bet isn't so bad, but get ready to muck to any reraise. Checking isn't terrible here, though.

Results in the hand was rather silly.

I checked they checked.

River brings a nine, I check, one player bets $100 I call and he got some extra payment for hos trips - K9 at pocked. Good preflop call [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

In regards to "bet flop" do you always lead out with a bet when you have KK and there is a Ace on the board. Also if you bet and get a caller do you fire again or shut down and fold to a bet on the turn. Thanks for the help.

I would bet flop 150-200. If called, I shut down here.

As you played it, I would bet turn. Something like 150. If called, I would not really like it, but probably check-call depending of the player and the bet size.

I agree with CHR; make a strong bet and take it down there. You dont want to see this hand to the river.

They don't know that you don't have an ace. Do you raise 99 utg? Don't you bet the flop when an A or K hits?
