    bet the turn. you raised pre-flop, he limped. There's every reason for you to have a K and not very many for him to have one. If he then calls you can shut down.

    When you check/call the Turn you're forced to play a guessing game. As played i think you're correct to fold.

    What do you put him on when you check/call the turn?

    put another way - what range of hands limp/calls pre-flop, then flat calls your c-bet on this flop.

    Once you have that solved open pokerstove, add the king and see how much equity you have against that range.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    Its spots like this the WTSD and AF on your HUD are useful. Since you have a read this guy is aggressive and you're oop, don't give up control of this pot on the turn. Too much can position own you here. Bet turn and fold to a raise. The K doesnt have to slow you down but it should put the brakes on a lot of his range. Sauce and Spenda have situations like this in their videos and explain it well. If you're playing 6-max, these videos should be your bible

    I'd Bet Fold the turn you cbet once the king comes out he's usually not to good. Most likely it's just as big of a scare card to him as it was to you. So bet out like 5 on the turn and fold to any bet.
