    Default should I be able to lay this down?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

    UTG ($9.16)
    MP ($2.10)
    CO ($9.93)
    Hero ($9.30)
    SB ($6.55)
    BB ($7.61)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with , .
    2 folds, CO raises to $0.2, Hero raises to $0.35, SB raises to $0.6, 1 fold, CO folds, Hero calls $0.25.

    Flop: ($1.45) , , (2 players)
    SB bets $1, Hero calls $1.

    Turn: ($3.45) (2 players)
    SB bets $4.95 (All-In), Hero calls $4.95.

    River: ($13.35) (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Final Pot: $13.35

    should i be letting this go since he probly has aces more than half the time here as he put in the third pre-flop raise? on the other hand he seems like your typical 10nl donk who could have anything.

    You should be making a real raise preflop, Id make it $0.75ish. The flop isnt bad, but on the turn there is no way you can fold. Why does he probably have aces? The raises preflop are so small that it really doesnt do much to define a hand. With no reads on a player I am going to assume that with the way the SB raised that he isnt a thinking player and that he could have a huge range of hands and I wouldnt be surprised to see him call with an ace and another overcard on the flop. Is it likely that he has a strong hand? Yes, but you cannot put him specifically on aces especially given the preflop action and the stakes.

    Raise properly preflop. Does anyone else like reraising the SB, thereby volunteering to play for stacks?

    Postflop is fine.

    Only two hands beat you. AA or a X5.. His line to me at those stakes is A4s or K4s or a pair. Thats why the C-bet on the flop. You cant lay this down he has anything and you beat almost everything. I pay to see this you have a3rd nuts.Your supposed to lose your stack with a full house to quads.

    thanks,

    i almost always want to get all-in here preflop with kings, all that worried me was that he put in the third raise after two of us had already shown strength so i decided to see a flop. i think im giving these players too much credit for having real hands when in reality they could have a wide range of hand
    ex. 66 is what he flipped over in the above hand

    No way am I folding KK on this board, his line fits so many overpairs and only one of them beats you.
