How to play KK?

    I'm seem to get dealt KK a lot and while i don't think i've lost with them i can't seem to make them pay big.

    I'm finding it hard to suck players into the pot.
    On the tables i've been playing ( 0.02/0.04 ) you don't get a lot of people raising much pre-flop.
    And if someone raises more than 0.16 everyone usually folds.
    So generally i sit tight til the flop, if someone else raises, i'll call.
    A lot of times i end up not wanting to give people the chance to see past the flop unless they want to pay well for it.
    So invariably i end up raising too much and just taking a fairly small pot.

    So what should i be doing to maximise KK?

    If your not getting action on your good hands then try increasing your raising frequency. You can either make a profit by taking a lot of pots down preflop, or do it a few times, show some bluffs (or get called) and make it much harder for them to fold to your next raise with a good hand.

    If you click on options (bottom right on any tables you play at)
    you can deselect "always muck winning hands"

    i was introducing my brother to PPP at the weekend (same limits) and on the big hands preflop or big flops, a massive overbet ($1) got called every single time.

    i think a 4xbb raise communicates something at these limits and a consistant overbet just makes people suspicious and will get you called and paid ;)
