I mean KT is a fairly obvious hand but not as likely as AJ. Calling here isnt too bad but would probably put in a small raise and stack off.

Pre is fine, I would now raise for value. In fact I would treat this min bet as a check and act accordingly

+1, Any info on players Stu? The "daft" little bet is actually quite clever and can be very effective, especially if you"re original raiser and you missed or seen overcards to a PP. You can, alternatively use it to look weak when you"ve binked a smelly little set and it"ll keep people involved. Very dependant on how you read the 2 players in this spot IMO, but I"m also treating it as a check for now and jacking it up to about 450

This...but the turn will be interesting.
in the absence of any information on the players I think it"s fine. With a little knowledge, a 3bet could be appropriate pre-flop as I think it will tend to polarise the hand you are up against.
This kind of smells of him flopping huge with JJ or QQ and falling prey to "fancy play syndrome". As played however, A raise is most definitely appropriate.
Paulie_D:
Ok, you posted the turn while I was typing.
This smells even more like a set now. I"m proceeding very carefully.

Meh - lots of ppl take this line for cheap showdown. Villain only has 1100 behind here and we r very likely crushing his lead small/lead small range. More than happy to raise get it in.

Paulie had it spot on! WP sir!
To be honest, i thought that AJ was a massive chance for him here, and expected to pick the pot up. This isnt a bad beat story, i am just generally pretty poor at online poker (cue comments about live poker too :p ) so wanted a check to make sure i wasnt playing the hand like an utter dick!
