1 of my first hands on ACR.
Do you think I raise bigger on flop? Also what about a bet on turn, villain is unknown and I pretty much put him on a FD or K after flop call. He is also able to have a set..
I just don’t see to many all in bluffs on river AQ maybe KQ maybe?

MP: 101.5 BB
CO: 132.46 BB
BTN: 100.64 BB
Hero (SB): 106.64 BB
BB: 105.94 BB
UTG: 119.88 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Ks As
UTG raises to 2.2 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 8.6 BB, fold, UTG calls 6.4 BB

Flop : (18.2 BB, 2 players) Kd 7c Kc
Hero bets 6.18 BB, UTG calls 6.18 BB

Turn : (30.56 BB, 2 players) 8c
Hero checks, UTG bets 21.76 BB, Hero calls 21.76 BB

River : (74.08 BB, 2 players) 2d
Hero checks, UTG bets 83.34 BB and is all-in, fold

UTG wins 70.38 BB

I would bet this turn for 1/2 to 2/3 pot.
As played, did you consider check/raising the turn?

KJ+ and perhaps even AK, QQ might play like this.
K7, K8 and K2 seem unlikely. 88, 77 and 22 are solidly in his range though.

Now let's hear from the experts...

Imo flop bet is good. It puts villain less than fd or Kx hands into tough spot. Turn obviously suck as flushes are now way ahead and UTG range can have lot of suited connectors.

I think we probably need to have club blocker for river call. It's nasty spot as unknown might potentially overvalue like KQ but mainly I would assume we have bluff catcher. Turning Kx into bluff make no sense in villain shoes imo. As bluffs some AcQx make sense. Probably could use some of small pockets or 8d9d type as well occasionally? But yeah problem is that finding bluffs in this sort of spot does require some creativity.

His value range is pretty wide like 77, 88 and good amount of flushes. Perhaps that 22 but I think that type of bluffs are rare? I am not sure about cash game reasonable range but I imagine villain can continue pretty wide with suited connectors in position preflop? This flop villain is likely not raising much so call does not really affect flush combos.

So overall this doesn't feel like good combo to call as K blocker is not imo relevant for value range villain is repping. In a way I could see hands like QQ or JJ with club to have better ev unless villain is doing this with trips. Do we assume AK to be standard 4bet pre from villain?

Well maybe I am way off with these opinions :)

I have moved your hand to our hand discussion board. There fits it better.

I would Cbet turn as well for value and protection. The rest of the hand seems alright as played, but is always tough to fold trips I think.

Cheers,

I think bet turn, can get called by PP’s and Ax and draws. Looks like the guys jamming cause you showed weakness.

@SDK thank you for moving hand, not sure where I put it.:f_p:

second sorry for delayed response for some reason i never got any reply messages in my INBOX, my bad..

@volpar Never considered c/r, reason being is I believe huis continue range to be on flop: AcXc KQ-K-9 77- maybe maybe 88-QQ Maybe.. so I believe he would have a pretty strong continuation hand, on turn. Possible i think maybe a B/f line for turn would be good.

@ghaleon- Rivers I don't see many bluffs he can have- the question i asked was, could he go all in with Kx that was my biggest factor. Would he be able and have the will to do this with a flush staring in his face. My overall opinion was that i didn't think as a random player villain be able to do that. SO I used the fold button.. Not having the Ac was a big factor in my decision process. hope i saved myself some $$$$

Hopefully in the end it saved me money..

It was on the normal no limit board if I remember correctly.
