If i just flat call, then he bets the turn i flat call again.then again on the river. then im just giving him my money imo because i didnt feel like i was ahead in the first place. i was hoping to push him off his hand with that spew.lol. dont get me wrong i will call people down with mediocre hands if i really believe im ahead, but in this case i felt behind and i tried to defend my hand in a bad way.

"If you think you're beat, well, it's only costing you $0.12 instead of $0.30."
This is true but i stand to win the pot and his 12c if my 30c raise works.
Fail

Wat? By raising you ensure that when he continues, he does have the kings. Or you give him a chance to blow you off QQ with only QJ or AJ.

Yessir, absolutely. And for the same .30 that it cost you to raise the flop, you get all the way to the river, with a chance to hit your Q or keep him in there with a worse hand. And you can evaluate his river bet and decide if you want to call. QQ is too strong on this flop against this villain to turn into a bluff.

Then why continue at all?

Is he ever folding a K? So you were hoping to push him off a hand you were beating? Does that make any sense at all?


Edit -- Just saw this:

That's not what I meant at all. I'm calling here because I'm ahead a lot of the time. The fact is, sometimes I'm behind. And sometimes when I'm behind, I manage to catch up. Those times are infinitely satisfying.
