Pair Of King with an Ace on the Flop
Had this problem a couple of time. I raise with pocket Kings preflop. The flop comes something like A95 rainbow. I bet and I get raised. Can I safely fold here?

Re: Pair Of King with an Ace on the Flop
i actually had the same thing happen last night. if you don't mind, i'd like to just add on to this thread and see what others think.
Paradise Poker 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (9 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB calls, BB calls, MP1 calls.

River: (12.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font> SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, Hero folds, MP3 calls, SB folds, BB folds. Final Pot: 14.50 BB reads: MP1 just sat down 1 orbit ago. SB usually slow plays everything, especially if he thinks someone will do the betting for him. BB is LP and plays anything. i think i should have raised the flop to try and get it heads up. also if that happens, i can check the turn UI? fold either to a reraise? my read on SB is why i folded the river. i think i should have played different earlier, so i could know whether to fold earlier. |

Re: Pair Of King with an Ace on the Flop
I think raising the flop would be the correct play. There is only about a 44% chance that one of the other four players has an ace here. MP1 could be betting second pair and a BD flush draw, hoping you raise to thin the field?

Fishlips [/ QUOTE ] My experience of these micro limit games are that your average opponent is loose and passive. Very few are going to be thinking in the way you have suggested. I think it is far more likely that MP1 has an ace. I think I would fold or if I was going to play I would raise, but I think when someone bets into a pf raiser and 5 other opponents with an ace on the flop, most of the time he has an ace. |
