KK UTG, 4 callers

1/2 NL Harrahs

I raised to $17 UTG and got 4 callers. The table was pretty loose. The pot is around 70 - the rake.

Flop comes

The two spades scared me and I went all in for $67. Did I bet too big? I figured no one could chase their Ace or flush draw with this bet. But mabye I could have gotten a caller if I bet around half the pot. But then I wouldnt have enough money left to push them off their draw on the turn.

Open-push is your only option. Sure, you could get cute and bet half-pot, but any conscious opponent will realize that you're pot-stuck and that your bet is equivalent to an allin.

with only ~43bb this is your only line with KK in this situation. I agree with trey, dont get cute and bet 1/2 pot as most opponents will see through this

How many times the BB should I have at the table everytime?

If you are better than your opponents and have the proper roll, most prefer to have as much as is allowed.

...or at very least 100bb
