Table was loose & mostly fishy, and I was running fairly well & feeling a little too confident on this one. CO is an incredibly loose, PFR with any two kind of guy who has lately taken to raising PF & folding the flop after losing a bunch of hands. Button is almost as loose but not quite so aggressive. SB is an unknown, BB is loose passive & has been running terribly, probably tilting after a recent reload. MP3 is slightly loose, but otherwise a solid player.

Aside from folding preflop /images/graemlins/tongue.gif, can I really get away from this hand at any point?

EEk. Its a tough hand. My guess is that he has J-10 and you are drawing to 4 outs. If the Button was going nuts, you might be able to escape, as you are behind almost anything he can 3 bet with.

It would've been better for me if he'd had JT. SB had exactly what I thought he had--AK.

I guess this is what they meant when they cautioned against calling preflop raises with KQ.

Really you can't, the pot is huge. Your getting correct odds.
