Absolute Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $95.85
UTG+1: $25
CO: $14.48
Button: $98.50
HERO: $102.20
BB: $116

Pre-flop: (6 players) HERO is SB with K K
UTG raises to $2, UTG+1 folds, CO raises to $4, Button folds, HERO raises to $14.25, BB calls, UTG folds, CO raises all-in $14.48, HERO calls, BB calls.

Flop: 2 Q K ($45.44, 2 players + 1 all-in - Main pot: $45.44)
HERO bets $20, BB calls.

Turn: J ($85.44, 2 players + 1 all-in - Main pot: $45.44, Sidepot 1: $40)
HERO ?????.


UTG is about 35/15/6 through 150 hands or so.

I down sized my flop bet a little, both because of the side pot aspect and I think he might want to shove. Not a 100% sure what my thought process here should be. Advice on both flop and turn please.

After cold calling that many times, he likes his hand. $45 at least.

jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
 I'd bet more on the flop so that the money goes in easier on the turn.

QFT, this is where you size your bet. $85 behind, usually ~1/3 is good. So make it $30, that leaves $50 into a $90 side pot.

As played, there is too much money in the middle to fuck around, just push.

Yeah, a little more on the flop may have set the hook.
