I would raise flop and go broke on turn.

what Hlynkinn said. By calling on the flop you gained 0 information and raising would give you some insight, about him holding 2p, set or whatnot.

his river bet looks like a block-bet, as it's unlikely that he would bet so little or not raise you on turn if he held QT. Since folding isnt really an option and raising is risky, as villain could decide 3-bet AI, call was definitely the way to go.

Did you consider raising him PF? you are most likely favorite with king and raising would give you control, esp. since you are in position

I wouldnt consider pf raise unless villain is max. 3bb deep.


Preflop raise is read dependant for me.

As played build the pot with reraising / shoving over resistance on the flop and the turn.

You won't even get to the river with chips not in the middle and with a strong hand bvb
that is what you want. His raise looks like a value raise on the flop not big enough to
scare you off. If it is a stab then you take it down on the flop but I think in the long run
you get more value building a bigger pot in spots like this as soon as you can.

Hi all,

Flop is good. Raise to 320 or so on the turn and shove the river. If he bet bigger I probably call. But as played I think we easily have the best hand often enough.
