    Default I'm guessing a PF raise is the solution...

    I'm guessing a PF raise could have resulted in my avoiding this situation altogether. Perhaps a bigger bet on the flop as well? Suggestions?

    Seat 1: menriq ($4.45 in chips)
    Seat 2: jrashbau ($18.05 in chips)
    Seat 3: Olushenka ($24.60 in chips)
    Seat 4: FJ Bourne 2 ($24.75 in chips)
    Seat 5: chaneck ($25.35 in chips)
    Seat 6: MrMcj [KH,QH] ($22.70 in chips)
    Seat 7: TexasToast66 ($17.60 in chips)
    Seat 8: kong.w ($17.50 in chips)
    Seat 9: kewl2 ($11.05 in chips)
    Seat 10: lexter x ($27.50 in chips)

    kong.w posts blind ($0.15), kewl2 posts blind ($0.25).

    kong.w checks, kewl2 bets $2, lexter x folds, menriq folds, jrashbau folds, MrMcj bets $4, TexasToast66 folds, kong.w folds, kewl2 calls $2.

    TURN [board cards KD,7D,6H,9C ]
    kewl2 bets $6.80 and is all-in, MrMcj calls $6.80.

    RIVER [board cards KD,7D,6H,9C,KC ]


    SHOWDOWN
    kewl2 shows [ 8H,5C ]
    MrMcj shows [ KH,QH ]
    kewl2 wins $22.85.



    SUMMARY
    Dealer: TexasToast66
    Pot: $23.35, (including rake: $0.50)
    menriq, loses $0.25
    jrashbau, loses $0.25

    if you wanna cut the feild down you would have to bet 1.25 preflop.

    I think raising to 1.25, calling the .25, and folding are all correct plays.

    3x the pot on the flop raise probably would have gotten him off the draw. If not, you were probably going this route anyway.

    Save a dollar pre-flop - lose the pot post-flop! Hard lesson to learn!

    Raise to 6 rather then 4 on the flop also... you're giving 3-1 odds, which are not enough to protect a single pair.
