$10 6m KK facing resistance

[sfustsh]

I'd say that's an overbet, but at least it's heading in the right direction.

Agreed.

Against this villain you might just get called ...

More hijacking, fantasy, and brain mining - sorry! Okayyy...As long as I am exploring...What about this?

You mean: Hero raises $2 to $4, right? Not, that you actually put in $4,5 (I'm always a bit confused by the nomenclature of NL HH )

Yes, that's what I would do. Maybe even a tad less as there are few draws available for which you have to charge so much.

But I'm even more a NL donk than a Limit donk...

SB bets $0.5, UTG folds, Hero calls $0.50. <---- Not a very drawy board, I'll make sure to get at least one more bet out of him on the turn before raising.

This makes me cry. I'm so sad. Why are you so mean to your KK?

That was poorly worded on my part. Sorry about that. I should have said raise about $2.00. In other words, make about a pot sized raise, bringing the total pot size to about $4.00. ( I hope THAT is what I mean! )

I think sometimes I do not know, myself, what the hell I mean!

BTW, PoorManBilly: No crying in poker!

Now, I had better exit this thread, permanently, before somebody punches me!

Too late! *BAM!*

Is that cheating in wrestling?

OW! (LW is staggered, but stays on her feet...barely. She pulls a foreign object out of her top and hits Sfustsh in the head! He drops like he was shot! Then, after replacing the object and looking totally innocent, a halo appears over LW's head.)

Is that cheating in wrestling?

Only if the ref sees it...and we all know how blind they are!

I kinda prefer $1.5 raise (3x, which is standard and is almost exactly the pot amount). I prefer to keep all of my bets and raises more or less standard to avoid giving out any clues to what I have. I would bet/raise/reraise exactly the same amount with a bluff, semi-bluff, TPTK, overcard and a monster. So, the only thing you can do to guess what I have would be to throw a die
