KQ on the Button - Can I get more out of my play?
Only 8 hands into the game so no reads. This is a pretty straight forward hand but I am only bringing it up because it seems to be a common hand. Should I be doing something trickier to build the pot or is this play fine?

No.
Resist the urge to be tricky. Don't let a flush draw take one off for free on the flop. Don't let a draw get there or Kx to get a cheap showdown on the turn. Value bet your top-2 on the river. Ni'han. -d |

Party .50/1 players will pay you off with rubbish without you having to do anything tricky to provoke action.
It wouldn't be far wrong to never play tricky at .50/1. For the majority of hands just play straight forward ABC poker. EDIT: Come to think of it how can you play this tricky? Giving free cards or not pushing you equity edge preflop would be bad. |

Where exactly were you planning to get tricky? There isn't a lot of room.
