Do I cold-call here?

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif.

MP2 posts a blind of $5. CO posts a blind of $5.

UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 (poster) folds, Hero folds, CO (poster) calls, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls.

So, I have over 100 hands on the raiser and he sees 10% flops with 6% raises, but there are two posters (one who folded before me) and I've got position. Is this just super standard? Someone smack me around.

FOLD is standard.

Furthermore, this guy only has 6% PFR, so he's either got a big pair, or likely has you dominated. (You don't want to be getting into a HU pot dominated).

Looks like an easy fold to me, if he's playing that few hands he obviously has good hand selection and the chance of being dominated is very real. If not a decent pair he's got at a minimum a suited ace.

There are much better hands then this to spend your money on.

imo.

With 2 posters I'm tempted to call or raise. You are likely dominated, though, so this is slim +EV at best.

If you raise you can kiss bye bye to the other poster and probably everyone else; you can see the flop and take it from there.

I don't think a call or fold is too bad either if the table is tightish and you have small/some chance of a 4 or 5 handed pot.

Good question.

EDIT: how's that. Raise, call or fold is my advice /images/graemlins/grin.gif

If the regular line is to cold-call KQs and fold KJs then it can't be very wrong to cold-call with KJs when there are two posters.

You really, really want the people behind you to be loose though. I think this is more of a deciding factor than the tightness of the original raiser.
