Message: [QUOTE="Frappo, post: 7128548, member: 1049373"] I wouldn't limp pre-flop as you show weakness. When the king came to the board they probably though of the pair as a great hand. 4 limps should already raise a little awareness not to opt for a call, but a decently sized raise. You still got unlucky, as King on the turn, giving them trips. Still if you played aggressive before flop, mostly K5 would fold, as for a limp, 1BB isn't a big loss with King high, which comes to a top pair on this board. So in summary you both could play more aggressively, to force action pre-flop, but also got unlucky to two kings on board. Either way AKo still would never fold that hand, but less people in pot, means less pressure to have a good hand, and by playing 1v1 far into the pot, you eliminate possible trash hands such as K5o [/QUOTE]
