Fold pre-flop. The villain is tight. What hands are you ahead of with K8 and out of position?

check on flop is fine.

I'd lead out on the turn and start trying to get some value for your hand.

Obviously, you played the river fine since you got all your chips in the middle.

How about not playing the hand to begin with?

Villian grossly overplayed his hand. Funny thing about the hand is if you make a play on the turn, which I would do, you
don't get all his chips on the river. Most of the time he does
not make his hand on the river so you wind up winning nothing.

OK. I considered folding, but I liked the fact that I had to call 2bb's with a starting stack of 75 of em getting 2.25:1. I thought K8s was about right for this. I could have folded, but I don't hate it either way.

I've taken some heat for my flop & turn checks, but it's pretty obvious that I was looking for a check-raise, and I was prepared to suck it up if scary cards hit (like a 3-flush).

Obviously the 8c was the money card. Thanks for the insight.
