      Anyone who limps under the gun with K9 suited should be shot at dawn.

      With that hand in that position it is very simple raise or fold.

    For me it's a snap-fold preflop. At these levels there's no need in getting busy with marginal hands like K9 that even if you hit the K could bet strongly all the way then the villain reveals KJ and you feel stupid. Also always try and be in positiion as it makes it easier when you hit your flush to bet it, but still never limp with K9s if anything do it with Ax's as you have the nut flush draw.

    Haha nice one

    didn't actually comment on how you have played it, on turn good bet size. at this point will decide whether he has a genuine hand and go down value town or whether he has a reasonable hand which in this case would bet pot to make look like a bluff as could call with top pair or lower flush. just think you missed some value with the check but can see why you would to make it look weak and hasn't worked
