Hi guys, just played this hand this morning and it's still bugging me a little, any comments or thoughts welcome.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed)
saw flop|saw showdown
MP2 Villain ($93.3)
MP3 ($5.32)
CO ($15)
Button ($26.7)
SB ($28.2)
BB ($69.1)
UTG ($16.65)
UTG+1 ($24.75)
UTG+2 ($24.5)
Hero ($24.3)
Preflop: Hero is MP1 with , . MP3 posts a blind of $0.25. CO posts a blind of $0.25. SB posts a blind of $0.1.
UTG raises to $0.5, 1 fold, UTG+2 calls $0.50, Hero raises to $1, MP2 Villain calls $1, MP3 (poster) calls $0.75, CO (poster) calls $0.75, Button calls $1, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.50, UTG+2 calls $0.50.

UTG checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero bets $7, Villain calls $7, MP3 calls $4.32 (All-In), CO folds, Button folds, UTG folds, UTG+2 folds.
ok, nice flop no flush or realistic straight draws, bet the pot. Villain calls, not what i was expecting...
Turn: ($25.67) (3 players, 1 all-in)
Hero calls $16.30 (All-In), Villain calls $16.30.
Nice turn card, but this is the situation thats bugging me. I've got $16 left and the pot is $25. I'm thinking that if i bet small and he calls then i have to bet again on the river and i've still got no idea what he has (i was fearing a set, but then i always fear a set when someone call a large flop bet with an uncoordinated board).
River: ($58.27) (3 players, 2 all-in)
Final Pot: $58.27
Main Pot: $20.31, between Villain, MP3 and Hero. > Pot won by Hero ($20.31).
Pot 2: $37.96, between Villain and Hero. > Pot won by Hero ($37.96).
Results in white below:
Hero has Ah Kh (one pair, kings).
Villain has Jc Ks (one pair, kings).
MP3 has Qc 9c (one pair, nines).
Outcome: Hero wins $58.27.
I guess i'm just asking if there was a better way to play this hand or if i made the only reasonable play left to me on the turn.
Thanks, your help is always appreciated.
