Analyze KTs in MP

Wizard0965 · #1 09-29-2005, 03:27 AM

I'm building my bank roll to move up to .5/1 so I'm playing people who are mainly LAG with tables that are 40%-60% to see the flop. I believe with two to act behind me that I am getting odds to call the flop and once I improved what is the best way to play it? Give me your input . . .

Looks like a limp PF, LAGs behind you, right? Fold the flop, raise the turn.

Edit: Don't know what I was thinking, I raise KJo PF so KTs is easy. Thanks Brad. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Would limp pre-flop.

Really not sure about this flop. 5.5 outs, maybe implied odds just swing it. still not sure.

Raise the turn.

Raise the turn.

Raise preflop as well. That is my play here.

I think the difficult part of this hand is what does hero do on the flop. I think I would probably fold the flop, why are so few posters saying they would fold the flop?

I’m thanking UTG+1 for adding to MY pot as I raise!

Ya, UTG1 did you a big favor by enabling you to charge a lot to the others or make them fold on this board that has a lot of redraws to beat you.

PF: Limp is fine given the table conditions.

Flop: I think a fold would be better here. The pot isn't that large yet. You might already be behind to a better king, any ace, and your tens could be reverse dominated. And you don't know if there's going to be raising or re-raising behind you.

Turn: Raise it up while they're still drawing. There are straight draws and flush draws out there, and if another ace comes on the river you're likely to lose to a bigger FH.
