With the toppest of the pairs, I like c/c or b/f but i think I like c/c better because worse kings can value bet when checked to given AF and as a standard TAG I think he's raising FD's, sets and p+draws on the flop.

definitely check fold now

the interesting question is whether you should have checked the flop or turn.

his range to call the flop 4 way out of relative position has gotta be pretty tight, i would think KJs KQ AK, maybe QQ/JJ, sets and some fd's, which makes betting the turn pretty thin imo. You could probably c/f.

I would often check flop barring the other two players being donks.

As a standard TAG, I'm pretty sure he's raising flop with sets on this type of board, if not then almost definately without fail on the turn given how sticky the river can get.

Plus people raise FD's religously, especially nuttish flush draws.

3bet % makes me not want to give him AK like ever

Isn't c/c the uber standard line on WA/WB situations like this?

Or is my thought process on this wrong?

in order to checkcall you would need to think he is betting some hands that are worse than ours on the river...there arent any obviousy combos of those. based on your hand reading the correct play would clearly be to shove for both value vs KJs/KTs and fold equity vs chops.

ur also misunderstanding WA/WB. after the river is dealt you are always WA/WB.

i think most good players these days realize that calling the flop and turn with a set/fd in this hand is the obv best line. dunno if many 100nl players play this way or not.

Interesting, I'll sometimes just call a set here depending on opponent, but usually just raise it up on the flop as most regs with a K in their hand just love to put you on draw and love to stack off with even say KJ here (especially since we assume PFR will usually have at least KQ when he cbets this multiway flop). I get how in a vacuum v's players who pay attention that calling flop and turn with both draws and sets makes for good balance, but its hard to go past the upfront value of raising sets here in a vacuum. That said I would therefore tend to be really unbalanced since the only draws I'd raise would be KhXh draws and probably just call with bare draws.

[edit] To address your query, I suspect very very few 100nl players would call both flop and turn with a set. It would definately be the exception in my experience.
Just playing to improve.

meh bj i disagree, most 17/13 people at 100nl understand what an insanely strong line raising this flop would be.

Renton, Do you check turn here, simply because you don't think i can get 3 streets of value against this particular dude.? He won't call with a worse hand on the turn..Anddd the river? Is this your general line of thought. The more i think about it the better the idea sounds. We can easily b/f river for value if he c/b turn, and we can easily c/f riv if he bets both the turn and the river if we c/c turn.

This is 200nl btw, Nuts and BJ seem to think its 100nl.

Explain this please. Is it just because it would be hard as piss to balance raises on either street?

I dunno, I cant remember ever seeing a decent player flat call 2 streets on a board thats in any way drawy with a set. They may not raise the flop, but very few in my experience can resist raising the turn. Perhaps I just dont see them showdown much since I would rarely call a river raise if they did.

At 200nl I'd say a 17/13 is almost more a Nit than a Tag. That said even at 200nl I dont think you're seeing bluff raises enough here for a call to be good. I'd only expect very occassionally for something like KT that realises their hand isnt good to turn it into a bluff if you barrel the 3rd time, but I dont think people would do it enough. Likewise if you checked they'd check everything with showdown value that you're ahead of behind.

Well, nuts seems to believe turn is a bet so there's a 90% chance I'm wrong. I definitely would bet as a standard, but given how tight this player is, KQ and better are gonna make up a bigger percentage of his range than average, and he's also gonna have less flush draws too.

And I said I wouldn't c/c turn, I'd c/f. If c/c is +ev, then betting is better.

I agree with others, initial thoughts were defo c/f river. OP should note that it will check down in our favour alot.
Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.
