Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 5803933, member: 305911"] I think pre flop can go either way. I don't mind folding in this spot and definitely have no problem calling a small raise when we have a king suited type hand. I think people defend too much at times with 106 off type hands but also think that is a carryover from tournament play but K8 suited is a hand you can call here with. The higher the C bet % of the villain the more I would tend to fold and the more the villain is passive on the flop, the more I would call. On the flop, we have trips, there is a flush draw out there and villain bets super small. To me, this would seem like its a bet where villain wants to see a turn cheaply for some reason (obviously a flush draw makes sense but they could also think they have the board crushed with some Kx hand that given the raise likely beats us). Even though we could be behind here I would not advocate just calling this small bet with 2 spades on the board. I would raise as you did and probably would have sized it around 4 BBs so in essence, the same bet you did. When we get re raised I am not loving it but I am not folding there either. Flush draws would re raise me and maybe villain is someone who likes to control the hand always and therefore will make sure they are heading to the turn with control of the hand. As played I think we should just call this as we are either going against Kx or we are facing a flush draw. As I said, there could be other hands we would never think of that is doing this but my mind would think Kx or flush draw. The turn is well played by you and I think weirdly played by the villain. The bet is too small to make us fold anything we could have and if the villain did just hit their flush they should know the board is paired and cant act like the flush cant be drawn out on. Given that they bet so small this is an easy call and no reason to raise as we are only getting in deeper if we are against a flush. The river is obviously great for us. If villain has a flush they probably aren't betting behind us and if they have anything else other than 2x which I highly doubt or Kx which we chop, they will check behind. If we think they will check behind then we need to try to get value even if we think its never getting called. We aren't losing here (quad dueces aint happening) so we have no worry about making a bet. I like something that is not too small or too large to raise eyebrows. Under 1/3rd looks like you are begging for a call and anything over half probably scares villain too much. I would go for 40% of pot or 16BB and see what happens. I think we are getting a fold from villain a lot but its worth a try. [/QUOTE]
