My input.

People play aces. So its prolly best to give it a little chick bet if they all in then fold.

There is no way around it. You have to fire at the pot. If you don't, what are you going to do if the other players fire at it? That way you have put yourself in a position where you may fold the winning hand. But for sure, don't do no all in.

You probaly have notes about the villains... so you will know the range of hand they have.

So if you 3-bet, you can continuation bet and if you get 3bet, fold.

You may bet half a bank and if one or both players reply - they aren't afraid of you and have ace. Or you may wait for their bets, reply on flop and fold on turn if they continue.

a pair is just a pair... You lead out the flop as a cbet and with that many callers if you get 3 bet you just fold on the flop. Youll win with a C bet a lot of the time though if you're first to act

I second this advice. With an ace on the board and two callers your kings probably aren't good anymore, leaving a c-bet as your best option to take down the pot.

Stack depth will influence how I play this out of position, along with specifics on how my opponents play. If you cbet and meet resistance your kings are beat and you probably have to give them up. It's hard sometimes to let such a pretty preflop hand go but when you're beat you're beat.

Yeah this, unless its like 4 way at the micros then you can be pretty damn sure one of the herberts will have an ace.

That said, im pretty much one then done. Or at least make the turn/river bets so small worse can still call. I wouldnt be bothered too much about allowing them odds to chase a flush or straight, seeing as aces dont get folded so your prob behind to somebody anyway.

Vs 2 on flop I am bet folding to resistance. Late position calls I would not assume an ace so that is why I would try to take it down with a bet but it depends on a lot of things really stack sizes, history.....

poket kings

You need to bet at the pot . This way you control atleast how much you pay to see next card . If they fire back .. you know your answer .
