Default KK hand

Sorry dont have the hand history but the action is pretty simple. This hand was played on the $50 NL table on Bodog, where as many of you know, the play is uhhhh, pretty shaky alot of the time. I have about $65 and villain covers. I havent seen him before but he hasnt done anything crazy in
the 30 minutes or so I've been at the table. He opens for $2 in MP and I make it $4.50 w/KK from the CO (yes, I know I usually re-raise more but for whatever reason I decided not to this time). All others fold and he calls. Flop comes: T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Villain checks, I bet out $7.50, villain min-checkraises to $15, and I call. Turn is an offsuit 3, and Villain bets outs $23. I will only have $23 left if I call this bet so this is obviously pot-commitment time on the turn. Thoughts?

As you stated raise more pre-flop.

Stick it on the turn. If he outflopped you, then so be it (there's only one reasonable hand you're behind). There's a lot of hands you're ahead of here.

No, there are 2 reasonable hands. There is also about a 20% chance he is a total donkey, given that it is Bodog, but Im ignoring that for now.

And TT and JJ. Its a little strange b/c many people wouldnt play JJ or QQ this strongly on the turn, and many people wouldnt play AA this way. Any thoughts other than poooooooooooooooooooooooooosh?

Not really--it is so player dependent and even then things ain't clear, 'cause play at 50nl tables is so variable.

At this level some always read a reraise preflop as aa, kk, qq. Others don't look beyond the flop and their own hand.

Against a weak passive postflop player--I'm folding. Against a donk, I'm counting my chips. Against others, I'm uncertain.
