Is it good to fold Here? ,  Pre flop or should i have went on in regardless , The Player Who went all in was playing very Tight previous to this so i assumed he would have an Ace of some sort. Thanks.

    yeah in the long run its a good call i gues. Only folded due to how tight he was playing. Thanks

    4bet pre instead of calling, commit yourself, sigh call with kings and do a back flip when you bink.  Simple really.

    As played, very good read.  I would be exhausting the note function as well, interesting bet sizing throughout the hand.

    However don't start looking to fold kings preflop more than extremely rarely, overall it's a losing proposition and you need very good reasons to do it.  Did you have them here or was it solely down to the betting?  And when I say very good I mean reads formed over several sessions rather than one or two?

    Thanks for the advice, TBH The read was based on How tight i thought he was playing and the bet size.

    Good fold?
    In my opinion... no - it's negative ev to fold kings pre in NL 6 max 100bbs deep even vs supernit like jimmynolegs.

    As for the way the hand played out, must of been feelings of joy when you see you make an unbelievably good fold then after the river a WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

    I fold kings here IF and i mean only IF villian only does this with AA 'which means my notes have to be spot on' but in general readless or not much history and roughly 100bb's deep i think i have to call . and want to , every time.

    i like the flat, but i flat to keep the fish in, expecting him to shove a lot of the time and jimmy to reshove as he did but he does this with JJ/QQ/AK not just AA....either way whether u 3 bet pre or call/call shove im getting it in 100bb deep
