Was i right to fold KK?

davelufc

Early stages of a £5 BH.
I wasn`t sure where i was after flop,
River gave oppo too many outs right?
This was the 2nd consecutive hand i had been dealt KK!!!
Was bet sizing ok?

I think he had it. I like your bet sizes and something I would do. But don't let that get to you im rubbish lol.
His bet being the exact amount you have left stinks that he has just hit it. Trying to make it look as small as possible but having the same effect as going all in

grantorino

looks ok to me

UL Dave WP IMO

debdobs_67

Thanx guys  ( and debs)
Some really good info on here.
I`m glad that most agreed that it was a good fold.
Cheers again.

yeah you should never be getting your chips in here, your beating nothing but a bare bluff, annoying to lay down such a good hand preflop, but your never winning here im afraid

correct fold, flop like that stinks for a pocket pair when you weren't even drawing for the flush, ace on river the final straw, way too may hands that could be beating you, pocket pairs can be great, but at the end of the day it's still only a pair, opponent could have called pre-flop with holding like AJ, or even J-x or suited connectors, you would likely be losing to more hands that would call your bets than you would be beating - even if the opponent was playing loose aggressive and betting out with air,  this hand would be perfect opportunity to use that table image to their advantage, knowing that with your obvious good starting hand that you might well call thinking he is just bluffing - correct fold, it's the pretty looking hands that get us in trouble most times :-)
