Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is CO with [K :spade: ], [K :club: ]. UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, 4 folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls.Flop: (9.50 SB) [2 :heart: ], [9 :heart: ], [2 :spade: ] (4 players)UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls.Turn: (11.75 BB) [Q :diamond: ] (3 players)UTG checks, Hero bets, UTG calls, Hero calls.River: (17.75 BB) [A :club: ] (3 players)UTG checks, Hero checks, Button bets, UTG calls, Hero calls.Final Pot: 20.75 BButg is a loose limper PF and generally passive. The button was on autobet/raise so his raises didn't neccessarily mean anything as he ahd just been doing that to mess with people I think, so generally I just viewed his riases as a means for me to pump the pot whenI was in a hand. Did I play this correct

Looks like it to me. I'm always surprised when I put two or three callers on straight or flush draws- that ace hits, and they bet into me. They were playing A-rag the entire time.Consider this: If you raised out first and they folded/called, you win no problem. If ayone hit an ace, they will reraise you and you will lose the extra raise bet.If you check, however, this induces some fish to autobet to try and bluff you out of your K's. You obviously can't lay down the pot and you call. They probably have the A anyway and you save a bet. Ontop of it, your equity drops when you check. If a fish bluffs at it, he's likely to get more callers than your bet would- and, thus, giving you even more bets.This is how it seems to me, anyway. Since you see so many fish autobetting when preflop raiser checks

Looks good to me.

Maybe I am being weak/tight here.The way the button plays this flop make me call his raise on the flop, check/call the turn and river.

under normal circumstanc3es, yes I'd be worried. But this guy had given me nothing to think that his raise meant anything whatsoever. I had earlier made a really good call on him when there were three queens on the board and he tried bluffing with KJo, I had A10suited. I made the call because I had noticed that this guy was on autobet/raise on everything regardless of a hand. So basically I just looked at his methods as pumping the pot for me. I was much more worried about the other players(not saying I'm ignoring the guy, but I would need much more eveidence in this hand otherwise to feel in danger)
