Preflop
I would play KTs in this situation, but KTo I would just fold. It does help, that its only a min-raise, but the hand still suffer from domination issues against both players ranges, since they can easily have hands like AK, AT, KQ, KJ etc.

Flop
Theoretically you are supposed to bet smaller in a multiway pot. However given that two opponents still called with A high, larger bets are probably a good adjustment to the way, this game play.

Turn
Obviously not a great card for you, or the action you were hoping for, so definitely agree with your decision to fold. Calling here in a 4-way pot would be pure spew.

Conclusion
I would have folded preflop, but postflop was completely fine.

seriously?
you fold with Kto in BTN?
I mean if they raise you, sure
but wouldn't you limp it behind a limper or call a min raise with it?

 

[fundiver199]

seriously? you fold with Kto in BTN?

Not if it folds to me, but if there is an UGT open then yes. KTo is not an open from UGT, and then its also not a call behind, when someone else have opened UTG. If there is an UTG limp from a bad player, I might isolate that limper.

 

[kdmeteor]

Yeah, strongly agreed on folding KTo here. I wouldn't adjust too much to the raise sizing; KTo just does poorly against an UTG range as well as poorly multiway. The only reason I'd play it (unless I'm on mild tilt) is if UTG has very large PFR stats.

We are only calling hands like this versus EP when we know that UTG, MP and at least one of the guys playing on the blinds are very, very weak. Otherwise we simply fold preflop, for UTG will have better kings, MP the same story.
And once it comes in check for us, we do not bet for we are not sure if we have more value than the players before.
