    Default Newbie question : KK

    Hi guys, I have been reading FTR for a few days now and this is my first post on this great forum !

    I'm posting here following the guideline for posting hands, I hope this is the right place (first posted on Tilt forum as instructed then redirected here).

    Could you please tell me if I'm doing something terribly wrong or is this just bad beat.

    The winner of the hand was playing LAGG.
    So I have KK and raise 3BB preflop. JJ come on flop and I play it carefully (raised 2BB) scanning the other players to see if someone has a J in hand. Seems not, CO raises only 10cts on river which tended to make me think of a blocking bet. I did not suspect someone was going after the flush at this point and could not destroy the pot odds by raising on flop or turn because of those JJ...

    I would love to hear you guys about this hand !
