But check-calling the flop doesn't make this about 10x more difficult? Also, if you aren't raising KQs at a 5 handed table, then you probably don't belong at a 5 handed table.

I don't think it becomes anymore difficult than it already is...

...and good point regarding playing short handed (I missed that). My comment was intended to be in the context of a full-ring game.

I push because I am overaggressive.

I check the flop. But now that we're here, I guess you should just push. It's more fun.

So you're saying that he'll fold anything short of the nuts and a set? Sounds good to me since he'll often have two pair here. And maybe he'll fold bottom set? That would be really sweet. And maybe he'll fold pair+straight draw which has plenty of outs to win or chop? I wouldn't really mind that either. And if he calls with a set, we have several outs to win? Cool. But I agree that check/calling is better. Which is why I would have checked. But he didn't.

Wasn't saying that he would. I was just showing why Tex's comment didn't make any sense. As I said before, I would rather check/call flop here as default. But once I bet, I'm not folding and I like pushing better than calling.

Well based on the conflicting replies at least I feel like Im not a total idiot for not knowing what to do here [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

After I bet and he raised I realized that checking the flop and avoiding this spot would have been nice. But if I check and he pots it, then what? Call and check fold the turn if I dont improve and he bets big again?

Um...depends on the player, obviously? Against most you can probably check/fold the turn. Against some you should be happy to get it all in on the turn.
