I wouldve folded not taking into account specific reads or whatever, and I think generally in this situation you have to remember that KK is just one pair.

I actually hate kk. Etc i start betting preflop and flop really strong. Because i dont wanna get caught by some stupid 32 hand or etc. KK AA will take more money from u then give if u try slowplay them

Also playing 32 with 3$ raise is stupid. Even they are suited. If u hit the flush are u ready to risk entire stack for flush then its so small?

Ummm....

roflmao justfun : [

and muhweli when he reraises like that on the flop again it is almost 100% that you're beat but KK on .5/1 is very hard to get away from i may as well just have pushed too

QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR HAND? POST THEM IN THE FORUM!

They were hardly questions. Plus this hand is embarraging :D

shut up they were questions

:D

i dont like the 3x bb raise in lower limits, people too frequently call higher raises, so making the 4x bb raise is worth it.

id consider folding to the all in. but you have to put in the raise to 35, he could easily be doing that with like 77. i dont think its as hard to get away from as rekrul, youre not even getting 2:1 and it seems likely you are beat.

i think its a fold when he pushes all in over you

I dunno, in general I think you're beat here. Gotta go with a read if you think you're not. Has this player been active, has he been reraising much, ever seen him go allin, have you yourself been raising alot (maybe he thinks youre a bluffer). If nothing specific is known about the player (which is often enough the case, especially when 8 tabling) I think you seem beat.

this situation happen too often... raise stronger preflop, use your read to call/fold the push.
Anyway I think playing tighter is the best thing, unless I have a read I don't call those situations coz most of the time I'm up against a set/big draw/AA (2pairs?).. most of the time a solid player don't push without at least two pairs. You show clearly here that u have a strong overpair (with the reraise) + u're the preflop raiser so it's more likely u're not trying to steal and can beat any pair on the board or small overpairs... I'd fold

meh this spot blows, u can make it a little easier on yourself by raising more pf.
