as good as that flop looks for you, i think this c/r is bad. the guy is coming over the top giving you like 4-1 so he cant be making this move hoping you'd fold. (in my experiences c/r in PLO always means a monster).

my guess is he has (KKxx). so you do have 3 outs (2 aces or case 2).

all that being said...i'd still probly pay it off.

I would lay it down...i put him on KK preflop, but after the flop, I would put him on KK2x...Also, I just don't agree with the raise preflop from you...you should just type in chat that you have the aces and he has the kings...you are not able to sneak in a monster pot by raising and announcing your hand...just my 2 cents...

i think calling his c/r here is totally image dependant.

If the player is a rock imma lay it down. After all he did raise UTG then when you reraised him he slowed down.

Sounds like KKxx and was afraid of possible AA.

The other thing he has to think about is that you could have KK with your raise...assuming he didn't have it here.

Which means for him to c/r you i think he has to have KK.

I would probably end up paying this off as well unless i had a really good read on this guy.

ummm where do you get the villian having a 2 in his hand?


and i dont think there is anything wrong with re-raising with aces.

Thanks for the replys.

And yes, they had K-K-x-x, and I didn't get lucky.

But I did go on a nice rush afterwards to end +$15 in 2 hours.

I'd pay it off only because I had the 2, oh, and to see his hand, so I know what kind of junk he calls reraises with. Like kings. If he had something like 2345 dbl suited, I would give the guy more respect than if he called me with KK-junk. I also love it to see the beautiful A icon_suit_spade.gif come on the turn, leaving him dead. The look on their face, priceless.
