That's a tough beat to take Dat, you got your money in as a big favorite, the all you can ask for.

Hmmm, I ask Dat in IRC if he could have folded KK on that flop. I pose this question to the loyal readers of THP: could you fold KK in this situation?


Posted Thu Mar 30, 2006 9:08 pm GMT by Johny
I don't see how I don't fold, I'd have to hope Dat has something like JJ or 1010, but those hands to seem all that likely, considering Dat raise on the flop.

I might just flat call the flop and check the turn and hope to get a cheap showdown. Also, if Dat shows weakness on the turn I would consider taking a stab at the pot (which could end up being a value bet).

I think it's better to fold KK on the flop.

Considering preflop action and flop action, easy fold.

I replied to zinn that even if I DO make that call with KK, like Johnny said there is no way I am leading the turn unless I improve and I am mucking if Villain shows ANY strength at all.

He says to me "Sorry, I was just trying to buy it" Shocked
