Great insights “playbetter”. You made me think about the alternative check on the turn. Also a correct approach with the intention to call. Thank you…
Well, it’s a tough situation because going post flop with Kings 3-way and finding ourselves with top set on a turn that completes a straight vs almost two all-ins is 100% we are beaten.
I’m not afraid so much about the button. He can have plenty of Jx or Tx hands. But the nit’s iso-raise on the turn reeks a monster, he probably hit the straight with the queen. Also, you said that the BtN is “a kind of loose player”, not a “fish”. These two don’t go together always.
So, the fold in this spot is the correct decision.

It’s free online video poker so like most here just go for it. Thinking to hard will time you out. Now you have no decision to make .
i would easily fold that KK hand that you refer at your first najisami . i think most would do the same thing
the problem is that some times its harder to decide whether your KK or AA or very good hand now loses on the turn/river , or whether the other one tries to get a fold from you with air . If the opponent is one things are tougher , maybe he bluffs . Collusion in the micro cash games make things tougher . I have seen crazy hands , when you say one of them has it , i should better fold AA or KK , and it proves that one of them had nothing , usually the first who bet oop before the two others , with complete air , it makes you wonder …
i fold many crazy hands nowadays , even AA i am ready to fold if necessary . Action cards make your life tougher online .

Well, this is a really difficult question. 
Everything really depends on the situation, on the stack and on a lot of nuances. If my stack was higher, I would have gone All-In on the flop, assuming that my opponents would not take risks.
If I needed to stay longer and I was in this dangerous situation, I would fold the cards. And in most cases, it would be the right decision to reset, because if my stack is not significantly higher, I am not ready to lose chips in such a situation.
Although, I love bingo and anything can be.

Hi, how are you? It’s a difficult situation, I don’t know what the right decision is because I’m not a poker pro, but nevertheless what I would do in that situation would be to go with all my chips, in the worst case scenario that my opponent has gotten his strong hand, he would still have some outs from me in the river, And if you win that pot you would be really good for the rest of the tournament, in poker it’s inevitable and sometimes you have to take the necessary risks
Nobody likes difficult situations. But this is poker. .For example, I find it very difficult to fold pocket queens. .That’s why I always keep an eye on the tournament lobby and see where the prizes start, and why I sometimes fold pocket queens. To get into the prizes… There are many factors before deciding a difficult question, for example from my steak… if I am the chip leader then I can go all in
It is a difficult decision, but sometimes you have to know how to fold KK and AA, to continue advancing in a tournament, if you know that your hand is not going to improve, it is better to keep a small pot, to be able to fold on the turn, as in the situation that you raise.
well maybe I am a great player and didn’t know it because I always say I was born in a filing cabinet, my whole family was folders and I rather fold and save my money for a better situation. That is a tough one with just a Q to a straight, but I also know our players way overvalue their hands but with two in I probably fold.
an allin and a call has got me off the best hand many times but that’s why I am still playing freerolls lol.
I would take them all in if you play a tournament just to get into cashouts I think it is a bad decision I play to win it and if they are willing to flirt they will have to pay me all their chips
Hi pokerfolks,
for me is is not a difficult decision because with this board 9-T-J - K - ?
i cant risk my tournament life holding 3 of a kind (Kings) but i wouldnt have made a bet of 50%pot @turn because that is worst thing you can do because @flop both villains called your bet - usually i wouldnt do the same @turn again. In my opinion to make 2 c-bet in a row with community cards like that isn´t a good tactic because at flop there is the possible open end straight and at turn your odds dont get better with K except river is again a K 
!
So in my opinion with that board i wouldn´t bet at turn at least and fold for sure!
greets
In such cases, I go all in.
I’ve watched a lot of professional games, and many of them do that.

someone has a Q . So my set is no good.

I think that with such a board you should fold. A loose Queen is in both players’ range at the spot, right? The nit probably holds pocket Queens or AQs and the loose one Qxs/ That’s my guess.
It’s a difficult situation, the opponent may have a sequence formed, as the raise shows a lot of strength in the hand, I don’t believe he would bluff with these cards on the flop without having a sequence or draw, as this flop has a very low fold equity, it also depends your opponent’s profile, whether he is a more passive or aggressive player.
All these variables must be considered for a check raise or fold, I believe that folding would be the best option in this situation.
I would reraise in this situation and force the fold or shove.
It’s a really tricky situation.
The thing is, AQ, QT, Qx, are all in his range.
I know it’s hard to think about it, but I’d call (just because I’m crazy) and would probably lose.
Thats why we need to push hard when the flop brings a draw, but thats rough
Sadly, i would probably fold, but i think its the right play.
Better safe than sorry.
I’ll go all in. He who doesn’t take risks doesn’t drink champagne. In poker you have to take risks
three players in the pot is too much, the probability of our winning has been reduced to 5%, however, there is a chance that no one got the lady, which is unlikely to check who will start. it is quite possible that both players received it.
It’s up to us to decide.
