I thought this hand would be interesting (as my fold sparked a good bit of discussion when I declared what I had after the hand). To me, this is a dreadful flop for Kings, particularly given the pre-flop play. The only reasonable pocket pair I beat is queens. A number of two pair and straight possibilities are also present.

So, given that one player leads into the pre-flop raiser, and another cold calls, I figured I'd find a better spot to get all my chips in with.

I personally raise more PF.

Other than that yea, with the flop coordinated like that, I also fold.

Gotta call and at least see the turn.
The Q of spades sure would be nice.

Bump it up more PF...You have a min raise and two callers in front of you, and the blinds to act behind..I'd go w/ something along the lines of $4-5

Yeah, I was wondering if I should raise more pre-flop. 5x the raise seemed pretty good at the time. $4-$5 (given the stack sizes) seems like it would drive away almost everything, and I do want to see a flop with this hand.
