I hate being OOP.

I usually bet this turn since we usually have a million outs.

River is a pretty standard value bet. I think we can prolly fold to a raise since the pot is so small though. We really don't beat anything. Any 6, any two pair, the only Kings we beat are K4, K3, K2.

His raise confuses the **** out of me after checking the turn through to want to call it though.... meh

Read on villain?

no reads.
Kinda cruise controlling, as I'm reading through some forum posts.

Preflop raise with KTs utg is probably not wise when in cruise control.
I only make the raise when I have a solid read on the table.
I fold it the majority of time.
Because it puts us in akward situations such as this.

I lead the turn again.
Because I don't like turning passive when my hand still has a lot of potential.

As played, I bet-call the river.
I try not to fold low limit rivers getting 7-1 odds when I hit Top Pair.

I almost always raise these hands. Thanks for the advice, ill start folding these hands and see how it goes.

I raise KTs almost every time too. It's bottom end of my range UTG though.

I raised a lot worse before reevaulating though, and took out some of the offsuit hands, but left KTs. I have been known to fold it occaisionally, lately though.
