Promised myself I'd start posting at least one hand per session, so bear with me. This was the only interesting one.

Terrible call right? Should have raised the flop or folded? I hate 1 card to the trips. Not sure if he was playing a stronger king or pushing me off with a strong queen or just cause I bet weak.

Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.25 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP2 ($15.25)
MP3 ($8.55)
Hero ($25)
Button ($19.50)
SB ($41.15)
BB ($24.50)
UTG ($17.95)
UTG+1 ($18.65)
MP1 ($8.65)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 5, K. Hero posts a blind of $0.25.
1 fold, MP1 calls $0.25, MP2 calls $0.25, MP3 calls $0.25, Hero (poster) checks, 1 fold, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($1.50) K, K, Q (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP1 checks, MP2 checks, MP3 bets $0.6, Hero calls $0.60, SB folds, BB folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $0.60.

Turn: ($3.30) 8 (4 players)
MP2 checks, MP3 checks, Hero bets $1.5, MP2 raises to $7.8, MP3 folds, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $12.60

How did you check in the CO if you posted the sit down blind you shouldn't do that, wait for the big blind. Any way deffinetly raise this flop i would go to at least $2, good fold on the turn i think in most cases.

Nonsense, he'd have to sit on his ass for 6 rounds then. If I'm not UTG, I always post the blind right away. What does it matter, one BB.. I wanna get in the action as fast as I can.

I see your point but thats what I like to do it only take a minute or so and while i wait i like to check over the hand history for last few hand to see if there is any useful information, I don't think it's a big deal most of the time your folding and waiting anyway, plus you dont get in this type of situation.

 Meh... your sb/bb are your biggest losing positions.. why post more than you have to? You should always (yes always) wait til the big blind to post... no matter how insignificant it seems, you are still losing money. Who cares if you have to sit out 6 hands? Are you really that impatient? Why put money into the pot when you don't have to?

I think by posting and getting away with limping you can pull off a hand sometimes that people don't expect OR you actually do get a good starting hand and someone decides to raise it up preflop simply because there are a few limpers plus your posted blind they think is free money. Don't know if that makes up for it.

Anyway, back to the matter at hand. So bet more on the flop and the turn, but good fold in either instance?
