Even though I won the pot, I am wondering if it was right to just call the two all ins, I was kinda worried about maybe a KT.

With the 2 all ins was it right to just call, Should I have re-raised to try to get more money out of nanc427, or would anyone even folded after the 2 all ins?

Hi. Welcome to the forum.

You played it well but you should have raised the river. You cant fold when only K3 and KT beats you. It doesnt look like nanc427 has you beat (he didnt raise). Just raise the river (all in) and hope he calls with a worse hand. If one of them has you beat it's just bad luck.

Oh, and next time you post, use the hand converter (if it works) and dont post the results. That will give you better responses.

Anyone bet the flop here? Say 1/2 pot or so.

I'm struggling to think of any likely scenarios in which someone will make a big hand on the turn (and wouldn't call a bet on the flop).

So you might as well start getting money in the middle in case someone wants to play.

Or is this stupidly results-oriented?

Kind of funny with 3 people slowplaying
When nanc427 only *calls* on the river you can probably safely assume you have him/her beat and you should raise all-in (hey, if he/she called this much...) to get maximum value. Hands that you beat are plentiful.. hands that beat you are rare (two, to be precise).

i agree with stoneburg. The guy calling the all in will not have the nuts because he wouldn't be just calling so you should raise all in just in case the short stack has KT and you can win a sidepot from the other guy. If you lose all your money to KT or K3, so be it but I only see you losing the main pot at worst and winning at least the side pot. Scared poker leaves too much money on the table.
