2 KK hands...

HAND 1 - I favor a preflop push. You're likely to get a call from MP1 with a bad hand and you need to charge CO given that he could be raising to isolate against a weak player. Given your stack size it looks like a pretty easy push.

Hand 2 - This one is really read dependant, push/fold situation depending on your range for CO. Without reads I fold every time.

5 handed, you don't think someone has 2 pair or a set?

Pushing isn't terrible. Several reasons why I don't here. Given the near min-re-raise its tough to put him on a draw unless it's a big one he doesn't seem to want you to lay down. He's going to have you beat more often then you'll see a smaller overpair. At the very least he's drawing very live against you so you're going to lose a fair amount of the time when you're ahead and you're not going to be ahead often enough to make this a good spot to put your money in.

1. I don't mind the raise to 20 too much, as long as you are prepared to see more than one guy. You landed a bee-yuuu-tee-full flop. But you have to protect your kings. So, I would definitely raise here and hope that you get the fish to call with JJ or QQ. If he has 1010, oh well.

2. Fold. Just...fold. For all the reasons stated.

Well, thanks for the analysis....

The 1st hand seemed fishy IMO...CO just seemed to be itching for a call....

Hand 1:

Hero folds, MP1 raises to $32.4, CO calls $0.39.

Turn: ($126.80) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)

River: ($126.80) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)

Final Pot: $126.80

Results in white below: 
MP1 has 2c 2d (two pair, sevens and twos).
CO has Ah Ac (two pair, aces and sevens).
Outcome: CO wins $126.80. 

Hand 2:

I had never seen villain before and thought a set would push hoping for the overpair call....

I decided to push .....Villain used entire time-bank before calling....

Hero raises to $145, Button calls $55.

Turn: ($342) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

River: ($342) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)

Final Pot: $342

Results in white below: 
Hero has Ks Kd (one pair, kings).
Button has Ts Tc (one pair, tens).
Outcome: Hero wins $342.
