KK - craziest stat EVER...

[Talking Poker]

I mean, that's nice and all, but if it's that simple, why not ALWAYS raise from the blinds???

[Robbr25]

Good point.
Of course it won't work always, but I like the play when people limp in.

25 straight now, thanks to this gem that boosted my KK numbers past my AA numbers again.

Let me just tell you, I LOVE IT when they lead into me on the flop when I have an overpair. That's really the only time I feel comfortable with an overpair... When they check/call my flop bet, I get nervous, and when they check raise me... ugh. When this happens, however, it's almost like they are typing, "You have the best hand right now." Here, let me narrate for you:

This card could not have helped me, so I am going to bet and hope to scare you off your hand, just in case YOU have a flush draw. I will be sure to give you PLENTY of odds to chase though, if that is in fact what you have.

I just "stole" the BB from the SB with KK while I was typing up that fun dialogue.
