Just played this hand in a online tourney im still in...
I was dealt Pocket Kings (KhKs), so naturally, I reraised preflop about 10 times the BB, to knock out as many players as possible...
The flop was 3h, 9h, Ah, giving myself a flush draw, but that Ace just made me feel a bit weary.
Anyway, to test the waters and make sure no one else had a Ace in their hand, I bet 10 times the BB, everyone folded except for one guy who called.
Turn was 9clovers... river was Ace of whatever...guy turned over A9.
Should I have folded when he called my bet after the flop was dealt? Yes I understand that KK can be beat, but I guess it was hard for me to accept that he might be holding a Ace rather than a 9. A lot of people will play their nines...
I lost about half my chip stack chasing him down to the river. I'm still in the tourney and got myself back up to a healthy stack, but I wanted to know what you guys would do with Pocket KK, AFTER the flop was dealt after my bet was called.
