KQs - Please evaluate

I'm not a pro, but I like to think about hands, so I'll give you my 2 cents.

I think your R/C3B preflop, was ok, but you should then be very careful post flop, as you are probably up against AA, KK, QQ, AK, and possibly AQ or even JJ or TT.

The floating on the flop was ok, as you might still be up against AK, JJ or TT (of which the last two hands are the more unlikely one he could be holding.)

Now, on the turn, you should be happy, that he checked and the best play here would've been to check back at him. This way you keep the pot small with a small hand and if you are ahead, he'll probably fold to your bet and you wouldn't gain any more chips, and also taking this hand to a showdown, could probably win you the hand at this stage.

Unfortunately I also make these mistakes quite often and in this case, had you checked the turn, he might've checked on the river as well, with the possible flush out there. And there you would've had another decision, whether you want to just go to showdown or represent the flush (not that anyone on this stakes would fold a set to a possible flush). If he decided to bet the river, the bet would've been smaller and you could've lost a little less or even folded.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Preflop calling is fine.

Flop is good.

When he checks the turn I like betting here, but once we face a check/raise I would be inclined to fold as we are usually crushed when we face this line.

Best,
