Satellite where 1-5 get a $33 ticket, I'm 5/12 currently. I think its been 12 left since before the last break so at least 20-30 minutes.
Get dealt KQo in the BB position with 2 limpers. We all have a comparable stack size and just over 10 BB left. I was tempted to re-raise but with 2 out of position callers I wasn't sure what they'd be in with so checked.
Flop comes with a K, I suspect I have the best pair and best kicker, though 2 spades down is a concern and someone might be chasing an ace. I'm never sure at this point whether I want to do a smaller bet to get a value call, a mid-sized bet to either make people pay or to take the pot, or to shove.
I went for a 2/3rds pot bet which is probably what I'd do if I was bluffing too, but I wasn't. Nobody called so took the pot. Was thinking if the turn didn't change things I'd jam there.
What sort of bet sizing would you do here?
