Full Tilt Poker, $15/30 No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players
Hand Converter by Pokerhand.org

Board:
Button: $1,485
SB: $1,410
Hero (BB): $1,500
UTG: $1,500
UTG+1: $1,500
MP1: $1,500
MP2: $1,605
MP4: $1,500
CO: $1,500

Dealt to Hero (BB) K♣ K♥

Pre-flop:
(4 folds), MP4 raises to $60, (3 folds), Hero raises to $180, MP4 calls $120

Flop: ($405) A♠ Q♣ Q♦ (2 Players)
Hero checks, MP4 checks

Turn: ($405) T♣ (2 Players)
Hero bets $240, MP4 raises to $480, Hero calls $240

River: ($1,365) A♦ (2 Players)
Hero checks, MP4 checks

Preflop is standard for me.
Flop: This flop is AWFUL to cbet OOP, I am way ahead of worse hands and am never getting called by them (unless villain is particularly spewy and has JJ or TT....) and am value-towning myself against better hands which now all have me crushed.

Turn: When he checks back I try a feeler bet, having picked up a few more outs with a gutshot... is my bet/call on the turn OK?

River I just checked because again I figured i'd never get value from worse, and the only hands that would bet on such a scary board would be absolute monsters (I think villain may even check back with a made straight on this board).

So yeah. Thoughts, comments, criticisms?

Also:
Normally I wouldn't post results, but this hand kinda confused the f*ck out of me... How am I supposed to adapt to opponents who play this bad?
Results:
MP4 Showed K♦ 9♠
Hero Showed K♣ K♥
Hero wins $1,335

flop line is good, c/c is std here. and re-eval turn.

i was tossing up between bet/fold turn and c/c. but i think i like bet/fold a lot better. because villain really cant stab turn with much we beat in a 3bet pot. his turn stab will also include a lot of hands that were 'trapping' on the flop like Ax and Qx, so if we c/c turn we value-town ourselves a lot more often imo.

so i like bet/fold because i dont see how someone can bluff raise us on the turn with worse.

apparently they can according to the results, but a part of being a strong poker player is making the right decision on average, and i think more than 90% of the time bet/fold turn is going to be the best line. And if they bluff click-raise us on the turn, well played. :rolleyes:
