KJs in the big blind with three callers.

I put the squeeze on and raise to 5x the bb and everyone calls:

Ask yourself this:

What range do you put villain on by the river?
*Do you think that villain has many worse kings?
*Do you think that villain has many bluffs?
*How many value hands does the villain have?
*How often do you think players bluff by the call/bet/bet line?

I also think if you are in a hand 4-way it is much less likely that somebody is bluffing I think. Also 4-way is often not won by a pair.

As played I'm definitely folding the river and very likely the turn. This just isn't going to be a bluff/worse value enough of the time to justify a call..

Since the pot was already opened and is multi way by the time it gets to you, your best option is to check in the BB and see the flop.

If you do decide to get creative and raise, you should make it a bit bigger especially in a 2NL game where many will get sticky with Ax suited or not and small PPs. In that spot, I think an 8-11BB raise would’ve been a lot better. Maybe even more since I assume your goal was to take it down preflop or go HU.

By letting them in, them smooth calling the flop and betting the turn and river when checked to, they are representing a stronger hand than your KJ.

I agree with Ramadoth and will most likely be folding the turn bet myself. I just don’t see a reason to stack off with 2nd pair on a paired board for 100BBs.

I'd be raising here, you will sometimes get a HU pot with a great hand versus a weak range of a weaker player. Even if you get called by everyone you are pretty much raising for value and your hand will play quite well in a medium sized pot where from the preflop action you are super unlikely to get outkicked and can value bet your top pair vs fish. I think a hand like QJo is much closer between check and raise because it has considerably less pair value and is offsuit, this will make postflop play less profitable (and trickier).

Why did you bet flop?

They are not bluffing you in this spot (also they won't play a king like this), its a very easy fold ott. Bluffs are rare at 2nl, you should almost always be folding when you can't beat anything that they are representing.

edit: if you were in position against everyone then it would be a very easy raise

Preflop squeeze should be bigger: 3x + 1 per limper + 1 for oop = 7 bb.
Flop should be a check-call. You are OOP multi-way vs fish, so although you have the range/nut advantage, you can just play your medium-strength hand face up and check-call once. If it checks through, bet for value on any turn card.

Given the board if MP is calling your flop bet he either has: an ace (you're crushed), a king, likely with a better kicker given his PF call. K 10 is the only alternative, a flush draw (very unlikely, unless he is calling with 8 9 of hearts or something like that, which with no overcards seems a very speculative call and also is just generally unlikely of all his combo he has 2 hearts of all the suits in the first place) or a pocket pair, probably a very low one or he'd 4 bet PF.

When he bets on the turn you can take most of the trash away. I personally would hold the idea he's drawing for a flush very lowly, as it's seriously unlikely. If he has say, pocket 7's (or any other PP) I cannot see him leading out given that a king or an ace is definitely in your range. Additionally, the king that is in his range, K 10 and maybe a few weaker ones if he is a MAD calling station are just not gonna lead out here. The odds you have a better king or an ace are just too high and what is he really getting value from?

KQ betting here is a possible as AA means it's semi unlikely you have an ace
Any ace betting here is obviously possible
As established any weaker hands cannot bet here logically, so either he is betting with a flush hoping to get you to fold, or .. he has absolute air. Or he's an idiot. You can't hold onto that though

I think it's a fold, it makes no sense to continue past the turn.

River is exactly the same. Nothing changes.
