Villian is 26/3/0.57Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is MP1 with [Qs], [Ks]. 2 folds, Hero calls.Flop: (7.50 SB) [5d], [2c], [9c] (2 players)Hero checks, MP2 checks.Turn: (3.75 BB) [Qd] (2 players)Hero bets, Hero calls.River: (7.75 BB) [8h] (2 players)Hero checks, MP2 bets, Hero calls.Final Pot: 9.75 BBQuestion:should I have called him down after his turn raise?

I wouldn't oppose a turn three bet. He could be firing with AJd, AK, or even QJ. If's he got AQ, AA, or KK, that sucks.Best alternative to your play is probably a bet/fold on the river.

I'd probably play it the same way you did.

I prolly bet this flop....fold to a raisegh

why?

[KDawgCometh]

wow. his flop check is very suspicious. That usually means a monster, or he's being a putz with overcards. I'd be tempted to cr the turn, but his raise says that you're beat. I think folding to the raise might be too tight, gbut his ag factor says that you are up against a wall here. I don't think calling it down is bad here, but folding TP2K might not be bad either. I'd be more open to calling down w/AQ rather then KQ

Given his stats he is pretty limited to what he is going to be 3-betting pre-flop.His flop check is decieving.Villian has AA KK or QQ.

The more I think about it, it's probably AA or KK.Otherwise his check on the flop sucks.

I'm thinking of those two hands too. His stats indicate that he may check AK and threebet PF with them. You know what though, I hate relying on stats for reads, DKE, what have his actions been before, what has he shown down. This will tell you all you need to know more then stats

[DKE_XP120]

I didnt really see any of his showdowns, I should have mentioned I dont have many hands on him, he had KK, like most of you suspected

I do hope by "Deceiving" you mean "Screams 'HELLO I HAVE A BIG POCKET PAIR AND AM GOING FOR A CHECK/RAISE PLEASE BET AT ME THANKS'.".Just sayin'.

Hard to check raise when you're last to act....just sayin'

How the hell did I miss that?Clearly I'm smoking some quality substances to not see that. ;)Regardless, my point stands: Warning bells should be going off in your head when he 3-bets preflop and checks the flop. Yeah, he COULD have missed with AQ or AK, but given his stats, I doubt he 3-bets AQ and maybe not even AK; a pocket pair (Likely huge, but conceivably as low as eights or so if he's aware of the isolation concept) is more likely in this instance.

Post flop checks after three betting pre flop I always proceed with extreme caustion.. I proably would have check called when the queen hit. If I have a real good read on him, I proably fold to his raise, otherwise pay off.
