In retrospect, I shouldn't have even been in this pot, I don't think. Did I donk this up?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

saw flop|saw showdown

MP2 ($3.24)
MP3 ($1.98)
CO ($5.07)
Button ($1.86)
Hero ($7.88)
BB ($4.44)
UTG ($1.32)
UTG+1 ($6.04)
MP1 ($5.38)

Preflop: Hero is SB with J, K.
UTG raises to $0.04, 4 folds, CO calls $0.04, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.03, BB calls $0.02.

Flop: ($0.16) 2, K, 9 (4 players)
Hero bets $2, BB raises to $4.4, UTG calls $1.28 (All-In), CO folds, Hero calls $2.40.

Turn: ($10.24) 5 (3 players, 1 all-in)

River: ($10.24) 5 (3 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $10.24
Main Pot: $4, between Hero, BB and UTG. > Pot won by Hero ($4).
Pot 2: $6.24, between Hero and BB. > Pot won by Hero ($6.24).

Results in white below:
Hero has Jc Kc (flush, king high).

Outcome: Hero wins $10.24.

This was fine.

You're calling a minimum raise with what can amount to a big suited connector.

On the flop, even assuming that your kings aren't good (and that you weren't drawing to another one, like you were), you're good calling that with a flush draw as well.

You played fine and won. nh.

I would guess because he had TP (albeit WK) with a flush draw and he expected calls. If you know your opps enough to expect a call I like it.

The play is fine.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

With this hand I either want to build a pot multi-way or take it down without a showdown. I don't like the silly lead.

Silly lead, easy call with two others in the pot.
