Opinions on how I should have played these Kings? 200NL B&am

Postby Jux » Fri Jun 23, 2006 10:24 am

Lately I've been playing more at live games than on the internet, even though I get in way less hands per hour and the rake is horrible, there's something about playing in live games that I can't seem to get away from.

Anyway, my stack is at about 400 and I get two black Kings in early position. Raise 4x BB to $16, a college kid calls in MP1, and button calls too.

Pot: $42 (- rake ugh)

Flop: [6h] [6d] [2h]

I bet $35, and the college kid raises to $100. He has me covered. Button folds.
Normally, in my experience, college kids watch too much WSOP and WPT and think that you can play ring games like you play tournements. Just my luck, this college kid is actually a good player; tight, solid, and liable to make plays.

I don't really know what to do here. I know he either has a hand like TT or 99 and is trying to raise me out of the pot because he thinks I have over cards, or 56s/67s. A flush draw is also a possibility, but i think the previous mentioned hands are a bigger possibility. I'm also pretty sure he doesn't have 22 because I saw him flop an underfull in a previous hand and waited for the turn before he raised.

So, push and pray? Fold like a *****? Or perhaps I'm thinking too much into this and I'm just weak-tight?

Mallin!

That is a VERY good flop for KK. He could easily have QQ or JJ.

If hes the best player at the table, all the more reason to push. Put the screws to HIM instead of the other way around.

If it was a fish, you could check raise the turn all in (youre ahead here 90% of the time or more). A fish most likely has a middle type pair and isnt folding.

A good player could have a flush draw and will check behind on the turn but he could also have something like TT. Now what do you do on the river if the flush hits? What about a J or a T?

I play in a similar format live and I can say that the majority I find myself ahead here especially if he is a decent player... the only thing that crosses my mind here is A6 suited or maybe 2 overcard flush draws wherein i am happy to push. gg.

After asking for time, I pushed. He thought for a minute and called with [4h] [5h]. Not the TT or JJ I was hoping for but better than the 6. Blanks on the turn and river and I scoop :D

Call and C/R the turn. Let him make his move one more time...if you raise he may just fold, but if you let him bluff he'll give you more $$. 4x OOP is WAY TOO SMALL for a live raise...make it 6x MIN.

Just a what if thought to see what you guys would do....

What if MP1 just calls instead of raising on the flop, and something harmless like the [8c] comes on the turn.
Do you fold to a raise? (assuming you bet the turn)
