Spoiler

12.2 BB pot (0.4 BB rake)
Final Board: 8 2 K 6 2
BB showed K A and won 11.8 BB (5.8 BB net)
BTN mucked K 9 and lost (-6 BB net)

BTN has K :diamond:9 :club:

BB is a hard playing regular who doesn't 3-bet preflop

What's the worst hand you call down with here?

What's the best hand you'll fold?

given BTN raises and id have to put myself in his shoes. then I would need to have something like KT - KJ .. I totally understand K9o but with K9o i wouldn't raise turn since my kicker isn't the best. I would raise KJ for sure. Im not too sure about KT myself.

best hand id fold on the river. I don't see myself folding many hands here really given "my" line. Its just too big a pot and too strong a hand i represent. If for some god weird reason im bluffing then ofc its an insta fold and cursing at myself for playing my non A game. (especially considering i know who BB is) But if i had to choose some hands to fold it would be K3 - K4 - K5 .. hmm cant come up with more hands at the moment.

Worst hand to call down, something like KJ, folding KT and below.

Forgot to motivate, but his 3bet range here is really valueheavy cause of the lack of draws on the flop, so i recon hed have to raise something like Kx 89+ and some backdoor draws, like 79 9T JT perhaps, but not that many draws. The call down depends on what kings he 3bets on the turn i recon, so if its KJ+ then call down KJ+

I don'T know about the GTO play but either i have a read on this guy and i know he's not 3betting the Turn with worse hand, i'D even lay down KJ. 8x i would not raise the Turn with but call down, even with A8. Should be clear. If i don't have a read i'D call down with any Kx as there are not many legitimate 3betting hands in his range and on lowstakes a really often seen scenario is that people overplay their toppair hands, especially Ax. :)
