raise the flop and find out if he has a king or just fold if you want to get away cheap. Calling gives you nothing.

I don't mind calling.

I fold preflop though.

If you aren't going to give yourself a chance to win the hand (unless you have an overpair or flop a set) it probably would be better to fold to his raise preflop.

I think you should raise this flop and be done with the hand if he calls or raises.

Very true!

But I don't think you can fold it preflop, with the good implied odds

Calling is an awful move if you are planning on checking the turn. He will lead out with a ride range of hands, and youll have to lay it down. I think there are 3 options here.

1. Raise
2. Fold
3. Call and lead out on the turn

I personally like the move of flat-calling the flop, leading for t200ish on the turn, and fold to a raise.

Edit: I think you guys suggesting a fold preflop need to get out of the kiddy pool and start making some moves. [/cheesy]
