[Oct 14 08:27:56] : specialKK ?? What to do here

As this hand plays out, on the flop i'm thinking if i three bet and he FC's i'm definately ahead, so i three bet, he caps now i'm thinking he has AK or set, turn comes and he FC's my check raise, telling me that he probably does have AK... what's your move on the river? Raise or FC? Just out of curiosity what do you guys think he had?

I put him on Ak, but I'll pay to see his J-10.

Personally, I may have folded this pre-flop... a raise from UTG, with two callers, screams to me you're dominated, and out of position.

Flop: Raise is fine, see where you're at, the re-raise scares me... he could have called with AK or any pocket pair to hit his set, when you re-raise and he caps? I think you're beat.

Turn: Nice card / dangerous card.. the ideal card for you to hang yourself

River: Inconsequential card... I think you're already beat..... I don't think he has the straight

So, this is either a "does anyone see xx hand coming"? Or a "wow, can you believe he played XX" like that?

I don't think i can fold KQ for 1 bet from the BB when the pot is giving me 7-1... there's no way i'm that dominated... only if i'm up against AA or KK am i not getting the correct odds, (and it's very close vs AA) i don't think i can put a guy raising UTG on one of those hands right away, and the other two definately not becuase who would cold call 2 wiht AA or KK...

Seems close between a raise and a call depending if he sucks or not. You're probably seeing another KQ or a set here a lot if he's at all decent so just call would be my default, though I have no idea why he didn't 3-bet the turn.

Nah, the hand's too good to dump in the BB.

JT? No way. Cold call two and cap nothing on the flop?

Why does Villian call the turn if K is behind?

You don't play enough live poker or understand what makes passive players passive. I've sat beside enough players teling me what when I preflop 3-bet non-AA, I'm just throwing money away.

I dont think this is an honest question because theres no way you can fold here after pumping the pot for the last three streets. Considering the river card really didn't change anything, you should have known on the turn what your chances of winning are (or why else keep raising?).

Anyway, I think you got a little frisky on the flop but ot bailed out on the turn. A river 3-bet is out of the question.

Thanks for the discussion guys, what really confused me was why the guy didn't three bet the turn if he had a set, because then i could have dumped my 2p there... because of all my confusion on the river i just called, i though three betting was a bad idea because it did really look like a set on the river, but i couldn't figure out why the guy wouldn't three bet the turn... either way the guy had a set of 2's.

I think that question just answered itself... he thought he was good, and could get another bet out of you on the river.

Ya but he still gets the same amount by 3 betting the turn and betting the river. Hero isn't folding top 2 there.

The hero just said he could have gotten away from 2 pair.

when i said 'there' it was kind of unclear, but i mean on the river i wouldn't have put in any bets... i'm calling the third bet on the turn, but if i don't fill up prolly check-folding the river, very very unhappily, but knowing i'm beat...

Saying he's getting away from top 2 and doing it are 2 different things.

Note: I'm only basing this that if hero is capping TPGK here on the flop into the pfr then he's probably incapable of releasing top 2 in a monstrous pot on the turn/river.

FWIW, I'm not folding this hand on the turn/river in a pot this big...but that's my 2 cents.
