KK strikes back? (Cash game/BAHH)Can't Post

 
Or bad call on turn?

$.10/$25 NLHE, stack sizes and bets are based on what I recall...don't
have HH handy...

EP ($21 stack, loose player) limps, MP ($8, loose player) limps, me in
LP with KcKs raises to $1.25. Blinds fold and both limpers call

Flop is Q98 with 2 clubs. EP bets $.75, MP folds, and I think with a
$4 in pot, that's a small bet. I raised to $3 figuring to win it, but
EP calls.

Turn is Ac, giving me a nut flush draw with my KK, but EP bets $3. Ok,
it'll cost be $3 into a $13 pot, so I decided to call. Bad call? Not
enought implied odds? EP had about $14 left...

River is a 3c, so I have nut flush, EP bets $5 and ponder for a bit and
go all-in. EP calls his last $9.

EP has JdTd for flopped straight...IMO, he should have probably bet
more on the turn...

I've seen worse calls. The EP should have bet $8-$10 on the turn instead
of $3. Not only was it a bad bet on the turn by the EP, but it was a bad
call on the river by the EP as well. Once you go all-in on a four club
board, he has to surrender the straight. You really should not have had
any implied odds, but the EP could not release his hand properly.

True, I should not have gotten paid off.

In hindsight, he was probably slow playing on the flop by just calling
my raise, but he risked the 3rd club on the turn...

When the 3rd club came on the turn, it worried him and thus the $3
probing bet? His $5 bet on the river after the 4th club comes doesn't
make much sense either... Unless he does not think I had a club...

Are you kidding? You are getting the correct odds to draw to a flush
even if he folds on the river. This is an autocall.

He has no reason to think you have a club. In his shoes, you should
bet. He needs to fold to the raise though.

I think EP has to bet the river. Our guy made a decent PF raise, so
it's reasonable to assume he has big pair/AK/AQ. There's no
particularly good reason to think our guy has a club. If one of the
clubs on the flop was the Q, he realistically can only have Kc.
