    Raise preflop, you have position and a decent enough hand.

    Dude, you gotta raise that flop to define your hand. You have all but the small blind covered. A bet of 4000 into an 11000 pot is a classic probe bet. I raise there to about 14000. Since no one raised PF, the likelihood of AK, AQ, and AJ are diminished. I'd only worry about A4s, 44, and two spades. You probably take the pot down right there, and if you don't, you have position so you can choose to either lead the turn or try to get to showdown cheap.
    I study at KRE8R's School of Bankroll Management.

    If you IM me looking for money or a trade, you will be blocked.

    Thats some really weak play right there. I hate the limp pre flop with 2 limpers in already, you gotta raise this shit up man.

    Flop - Like Triple-T I raise this to around 15K.

    Turn - I'm not sure here, given his 4K bet into a 23K pot I'd say he probably doesn't have a flush. I'm certainly not folding here.

    Re-raise on flop as a test. Now if you get a push, the decision is tough. But given that we know your opponent has only K pair, he wouldn't push and probably would have folded right there.
