Well, I´d bet more on flop - about 210, fold turn.

I'd say you played this fine, betting straight out was good but wasn't exactally 2/3 pot which is the only let down here. A fold on the turn would have been a better play but he did bet really weak.
8/10

I fold this preflop... We have KQo in co with one limper... I just don't think it's worth it stealing some blinds here and I feel like we can more often get into trouble than profiting from raising here...

As for postflop I would bet closer to 2/3 pot... 190 is standard 2/3 pot... but kinda less like 170 should be good enough... But yea I feel like 150 is too smallish amount.

when he donks turn you should give up

and obviously fold river


Fold preflop is the best option here I think. Without the limper I would've made a steal here. Postflop, like the other guys said your contibet should be bigger. Something like 170-200 would be my bet.

Hello,

Your bet on flop is OK, you don't need bet more because if he has the Ace then he will Call you anyway. I'd just fold on turn.

Best regards,
Rensu

This exactly. As for turn I think a fold is too nitty; we have decent implied odds if we hit our T although the fact that the board is paired already makes it fairly close. I still prefer peeling one off though just for the implied odds.

id like the steal here.
you`re ahead of his range. and mostly pick up the pot with a cbet

on the flop id bet a little bit bigger about 180/200 2/3 pot like i always do. more is useless cause villain will fold all weaker hands. less makes it a bluffable spot.

on the turn i fold. you basicly have no real clean outs. so i don`t like my implied odds. villain can already have you beat (not likely) but villain can also outdraw you on the river while you make youre straight.

so a fold is best here in 1 dollar sit en go you just need to play youre monsters hard. no need to go in for tricky pots.

no A or J will fold and for weaker hands 1/2 pot is enough. With a limper I like a preflop fold too.
