KK im a maniac

ive been raising everytime its folded to me, and re-raising a fair amount, however, i did win a 300 pot off a short stack when i hit a set v. his top pair

i put him on a draw, probably something like KQs, AJs, etc., i think he re-raises/raises pre-flop with AK (i also have the Kh so that kind of eliminates that)

also, 4xBB raises are seen as a lot on stars, apparently .... 3xBB raises are the norm, and mini-raises are abundant, so a 4xBB + 1 for each limper seems real strong to these guys (i love stars)

i was also betting every flop i raised in

i love stars

It's like taking candy from a baby. Only the candy is money. And the baby is a bad poker player.

nh.

how low does your pocket pair have to be before you fold here?

TT? JJ?

This depends highly on UTG. It's a mix of concern with higher pairs (nobody really limps UTG with QQ+ so it's not a huge worry) and overcard + FD. I think with JJ it's less likely he has two overcards with a FD or a higher pair, so I'm calling. TT is close. 99 I can find a fold.

edit: Obviously not on this board. 99 in general.

just curious, not worried about villian having a set or two pair here?

alright i barely remember this hand now, but i really think he only has a set/2-pair about 30% of the time

these pushes on 2-tone flops are almost always flush draws, pair + flush draws, overcard + flush draws, straight + flush draws from what i see, especially after ive been pushing these guys around

set/2-pair, i usually see them flat-calling flop, raising my turn bet, or betting on the turn when i check

or raising less than a push on the flop

With that much of an overbet, its almost always a draw.
