Default Different line?

What line do you take on this hand...

$10 Mtt. Seems to be very little post-flop play at this table, with most coming pre-flop, or on the turn/river. Villain has been fairly solid, but did see him overplay top-pair earlier.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

UTG (t4050)
UTG+1 (t1045)
MP1 (t1935)
MP2 (t1425)
CO (t2630)
Button (t1810)
SB (t4005)
Hero (t1535)

Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
4 folds, CO raises to t150, Button calls t150, SB calls t125, Hero calls t100.

Flop: (t600) , , (4 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, CO checks, Button bets t400, SB folds, Hero calls t400, CO folds.

Turn: (t1400) (2 players)
Hero checks, [color=#CC3333]

I don't mind smooth calling the flop but a c/r is good too.

obv raise if villain bets the turn.

object: get your stack in and get called by all means.

If he has K7,K4, or Kx and fills up the river then gg.
I am putting him on a big king here, AK/KQ. I hope he doesn't fill on the river.

I bet this turn. I don't want to be closing off any action from a weak King by checkraising here. If you bet out it will look a lot like a blocking bet due to the flop call, and the chances are your opponent is going to be lumping it all in with any K here, especially if you have seen him overplay top pair earlier.

I was going to say CR the turn, as he will bet if he has the K, and you have the chance he may bluff bet without every now and then.
But I now like Inersha's viewpoint.

I guess either way on the turn his stack is 1250 into pot 1400, if he bets and you shove he is commited as long as he is not betting complete air. If you bet first and he calls, not shoves, his chips will still go in on the river.

If you lost this hand it would be pretty sick.

I wonder why I can't see the cards as posted? Just boxes with red x's inside. Maybe because I'm on the computer at work?

The Images are links to FlopTurnRiver, which is most likely blocked by your computer at work. So far PSF has managed to stay off the workplace filters.

Ahhh! that makes sense. I had also wandered the same thing (as thread didn't work at work)

I still don't get how some sites are banned, but other sites with poker in the title get through fine (thankfully). I'm not much of a computer buff!
