Hand:

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
NL Holdem $0.02(BB) Replayer
SB ($2.77) Stats: 15/0 WTSD: 33% -> only 15 hands
BB ($2)
UTG ($5.06) Stats: 25/16 Agg: 2,0 3-bet: 1% WTSD: 19% Hands: 655
Hero ($2)
CO ($5.76)
BTN ($2.05) Stats: 22/18 Agg: 1,8 3-bet: 2% WTSD: 28% Hands: 182

Dealt to Hero J♦ K♠

UTG raises to $0.08, Hero calls $0.08, fold, BTN calls $0.08, SB calls $0.07, fold

FLOP ($0.34) 2♣ K♥ Q♣

SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, BTN checks

TURN ($0.34) 2♣ K♥ Q♣ 6♥

SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $0.18, BTN calls $0.18, SB folds, UTG folds

RIVER ($0.70) 2♣ K♥ Q♣ 6♥ J♥

Hero checks, BTN bets $0.36, Hero calls $0.36

Spoiler

Hero shows J♦ K♠
(Pre 40%, Flop 83.7%, Turn 72.7%)

BTN shows A♥ 8♥
(Pre 60%, Flop 16.3%, Turn 27.3%)

BTN wins $1.37

So here is an interesting hand (for me at least) as it is a multiway pot and I really dont know how to play in situations like these...

Betting the flop would have been a good idea I guess but I dont know how much... maybe 2/3 of the pot?

I am totally not sure how to play hands like these...

Hi.

Preflop: this is a clear fold. Not only is KJo a huge underdog vs a typical utg opening range, u also need to consider the fact that there are 4 players left to act behind u. But anyway even in bb or bu i would fold this. Could be used as a 3 bet bluff though but ill fpld this by default.

Flop: ill bet half pot here, your hand isnt strong but probably barely strong enough to when there are so many straight and flush draws out there.

As played i like the turn bet and u should probably halfpot the river again and fold to a raise.

Thanks
