KKTr. Checks through. We have $700 and pot is $325 with the underfull. I checked once for pot control.
Turn: 3 bringing bdfd. We have Qc only. V in BB now pots. Hero? We have two players behind us to act too.
Thanks,

The SPR is under 2.2 so we need it to check out twice for pot control to be a concept and the only way it is likely to check twice is when we are good. Assuming you put any player on a K they have between 8-12 cards to fill depending upon whether they are paired and assuming they are not already a full house. At this point it is knowing your Vs. Will V bet a AK here or are we drawing to a one outer? Obviously we can't know but we should be able to know if V is so tight it must be a full house or aggressive enough so it can be the AK. Assuming no other player would you want to put in $700 to win $1025 vs this V? Given there are other players and a call here means the last bet would be under half pot I think you either raise to try to drive out a K that has yet to act or fold.
