I wasn't slow playing. I was making sure I wasn't donating $. Sorry I don't like to play KK that aggressively unless I have a good read. |

I'm forced to agree with PoorUser, how do you expect to get a "good read" without betting that flop. By playing it the way you did, you ensure draws to come cheaply, get little information, and in the end will usually lose a much larger pot when you really are beat because you will find out on a later street. It's a multi-way pot on the flop, I don't understand how you check... !?! |

Your play was fine except for the fact that a check-raise then check is a really weak play. It'd be a better idea to just lead out since you could be giving strong draws free cards as well. |

Depends on the number of preflop callers. In this situation it was advantageous for me to check on the flop to get more info. When there are 4 preflop callers I play a lot more cautiously. I don't mind if they outdraw me I will just fold to large bets. KK w/ 4 callers and no set is a recipe for disaster when you make huge bets. |
