0.25/0.50 NLHE 9 handed:
I have $68 and am dealt Kc Kh. Theres a raise to $2.25 from UTG +1 and folds to me I reraise to $6.00 then it folds around to him and he calls pot=$12.75. The flop comes Qh 8h 5s. I check and he bets $5.00 I raise to $15.00 then he goes all-in ($47 to call). Would you call or fold?

He called your preflop raise, most time aces would reraise you there (also depends on if you're in one of the blinds). On this flop, given the preflop action, the one hand you're afraid off in QQ. I think it's more likely that he's got AQ, so I would call this.

I agree likely to be AQ. I say call.

like one my bad beat thanks for I finished one tournament at last week on 3 place. I had A J and flop was J and some number cards. I raise in preflop, my opponent calls, I rise in flop, opponent calls, I go all in, opponent calls. He has JJ :eek:

Generally I call here, but if he has played super passive prior to this then it stinks of a set. Reads and stats help our decision a lot more, but I think it's a a rare ocassion when I let go KK on a non Ace flop.

its so hard to say, in these lower buyin ring games you get so many gauchos that are fresh from the play chip tables. It was either AA, Aq or QQ..heck i dont know i suck at ring games

I would have folded. Your flop reraise is delivering a clear message of an overpair, and he tells you that he is not afraid of it.

Same thing I was thinking but got married to the KK and made a crying call hoping he had AQ. Oh well live and learn.
