Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 8 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

CO: $33.30
BTN: $16.60
SB: $34.20
Hero (BB): $26.20
UTG: $24.75
UTG+1: $28.60
MP1: $26.50
MP2: $23.90

Pre-Flop: K♥ A♦ dealt to Hero (BB)
4 folds, CO calls $0.25, BTN folds, SB calls $0.15, Hero raises to $1.25, CO calls $1, SB folds

Flop: ($2.75) 9♠ K♣ 2♣ (2 Players)
Hero bets $2, CO raises to $4, Hero calls $2

Turn: ($10.75) 2♦ (2 Players)
Hero bets $8, CO calls $8

River: ($26.75) 5♠ (2 Players)
Hero bets $12.95 and is All-In, CO calls $12.95

Seems like I'm overplaying TPTK. What to do on turn and river? Flop play is OK, right?
Many times I've seen flop minraises with flush draw-s. probably with intention to represent strength and I won't bet then on the turn because of that. So I though about it while playing and fired the turn also.

Raise to 1.5 preflop. (4bb + 2callers)

Flop is fine, hate minbets :evil:

turn: check/call or check/reraise (depending the hand u put villain on)

River is a check. No worse hand will pay you off.

Stats on villain would be handy to evaluate this hand, especially his AF.

Hi Nitrub,

The minraise may mean a set, but he may also have a draw or a pure bluff. You have to think about which sets (or better hands) he may have:
22 is very unlikely given the second 2 on the turn.
99: wouln't he openraise it? I think so...
KK: I don't think he limp/calls KK ever.

Can he have 2 Pair? limp/calling with K9 doesnt make much sense; and the same is true for K2,92.

Hence, I don't see many reasonable hands that beat us. However, he may have a K (AK,KQ) or a flush draw. Given this range, I like your bet on the tunr and also the river play is fine.


I would be more inclined to play the river c/c, as a worse hand should never call but may bluff if given the chance.
