Flop decision with Kings after 4 bet.

[baldock92]

The situation:  Blinds are at 800/1600/200 in the deepstack yesterday. I've thought about this hand a bit and really am a bit lost about the best way to play it.

I open under the gun with KK to 3800, and UTG+2 re raises to about 8000, I 4 bet to 20k. He thinks for a moment and flats building the pot to around 45k. I'm sat with about 60-65k behind, he has about 80k behind. The player seems to be solid, I'd label his style as TAG.

Flop: Q 9 3 rainbow.

What's my play here?


Some of you might have already seen this hand in my updates, if so please refrain from commenting.

Think you should 4bet slightly more to make this flop decision easy.

As played, can bet 15k ish and hope he did something silly.

Defo like betting something like 12k now and probably not going to fold a lot of runouts (jamming turn obv). If he jams now I just meh call.

Ok reading the responses so far I hate my play even more. The stack sizes really messed with my head in on this hand.

Pleno, if he checks back the flop and a gross card hits like an Ace or 2nd queen, or even a J or 10 (given JJ and 1010 is part of his range here) how would you continue in the hand?

You think AK wouldn't rep AA by betting

It would rep AA by checking, since that is what AA would do to rep AK
