KQs, call the turn?

SB is pretty loose passive, hadn't seen him raise much.

Lots of draws, and the K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] was not what I wanted to see. Calling down pretty much standard? Or do you lay it down.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG folds, MP folds, Hero raises, Button calls, SB folds, BB folds.

Flop: (5.40 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, Button calls.

Turn: (3.70 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, Button raises, Hero ?

I'd base my decision from there. Otherwise, I would move into calldown mode.

call down

it's HU and he could have many hands that you beat - AhK, AhQ, AhT, KT, delayed raise from QT

plus you have some outs against a straight or flush

3-bets it.

You are likely to have the best hand and, as you said, there are plenty of draws out there, so you need to get the money in now.

I would not even consider laying it down.

I like three betting here too. You have top two and there are many worse hands that raise here. I am not too terrified of a flush against most opponents, but agianst a really passive one it is a little bit scary. (A lot of players would raise with a flush draw on the flop in position.) If he caps grit your teath and call it down.

How much do you know about him? Will he call 2 cold with AJ? I do not fear a flush, because with position raising for a free card is so common.

4 hands to consider :
AJ, J9, K10, K8

Would he 3-bet AJ? Would he call any of the others?

I am putting him on QJ, or KJ in both cases Jack of hearts. Raise!
