raise alot more preflop.

if you want 1caller and 12 got 3, try 28. if it gets two next time try 36 etc etc rinse repeat till you just move in for values

yeah you did get real unlucky with the turn and river - but to be fair you needed to bet more pre. you never ever want that many people going in with you when you hold KK, betting 12p when the rest of the table has bet 4p already means they are very likely to call.

he was actually calling for the straight draw here in my opinion and there are many players at this level that will do that.

Also, the all in is quite brave here; that flop is straighty and flushy so a good chance any of the remaining two players in the hand could have also called you (or both) at this level - thats not cpounting anyone who has flopped two pair. There is a whole range of starting hands people will call 12p at this level that means trouble for KK here.

General rule i tend to stick to pre flop which seems to work is 3-4 times BB raise +1 extra blinds raise for every limper. im raising 28p - 32p pre flop here. even if they all fold - so what?

terrible raise pre i'd make that 36-40p make them pay for that flop/outdraw

Hardly a spectacular hand got terrible call and they got lucky with runner runner

In Response to spectacular hand!:
What your opponent had was a double-belly buster with backdoor flush extensions and an overcard coupled with a scant disregard for odds and money. I think you should welcome the opportunity to play more hands with him/her. You see Dwan and his laggy contemporaries make similar wild plays that never seem to fail. I think some of the top pros and t.v producers have a lot to answer for. Still try not to worry about this too much after all it's only a game.
