Hello,

Villian was a 3betmonkey with 20% 3bet over a decent sample. You told me villian only has aces here 2,5% of the time, so I guess a 4bet would have been the best and easiest play here preflop?

As played, I think I cannot fold my kings here on the flop. The turn is a pretty bad card, but I decide to bet small because I don't want to give a freecard with my kings. I think villian doens't have 2 pair here ever, but he could call my with aces. But I figured that he has enough draws in his range to make a bet the best play here. Am I right?

River seems to be an easy check behind, because I won't have a lot of foldequity with a half pot bet behind.

So what we have here is a player who turns up with aces 1 in 8 times. That one time you will find yourself 2-1 behind with kings. The other 7 times you will be at least a slight favourite 55-45 ahead or better.

You are 130 bets deep and in position vs an aggressive player. It's a pretty easy 4 bet preflop to keep him in line but we can also smooth call the 3 bet preflop with the intention of raising every innocent flop (that is, flops that dont come flushing, 3 to a straight or ace high).

This is one of those flops. 954 rainbow, go ahead and jam the flop and be happy with whatever the outcome is.

As played you have $16 left and there is a pot of $32. There is no chance at all your opponent is folding a better hand than KK. The check behind is pretty automatic because I don't see a better hand folding (other than bottom 2 pair maybe) and I don't see a worse hand calling.
