Lost w KK on the turn


Villain is basically an unknown, I just have 30 hands on him and he's been running at 24/24/1.5, and I'm just completely lost on the turn. Should I just flat call, and then fold to a river shove if I don't make a straight? Is there any merit in raising here?

  1. This is a pretty sick spot. He could be doing this with a ton of hands, and I don't really see us being ahead with many of them on the turn. JT,QJ,98s, TT, JJ, QQ, AA possibly, maybe some sort of AQ where he floated you on the flop with a gutter, doubtful, but on Cake I've seen it played alot worse. I just dont think we are really ahead of anything other than KQ, which is an unlikely hand with us having KK. I'm not sure if I could do it, but I might just fold turn. If I decided to go for it, i think I would have to flat the turn and see if I could hit a good card, A, 9, 6 maybe.

    Tough spot, I just think you are going to see JT, QJ, 98 more than we want to.
