Default Re: Is this too tight.............

This one is tougher. Here is the guideline to remember. In Multi-way pots, Big unsuited cards don't play as well as big suited cards. In this case, you have big suited cards, and the pot is going to be multiway. You are a long way from being out of the woods, for instance what are you going to do, if the flop comes King or Queen high, and you are either facing a bet, or bet, and get raised.

However, in late position, in a multiway pot, with KQ suited, I would call unless I knew that the raiser was a tight raiser (of which there are a lot at .5/1.00), and see what happened.

Congratulations on the discipline to lay that one down, and worry about the results later. If you can do that, you can get used to letting go of a lot of other cards that seem to be pretty, that don't play well in the situation you find yourself in, when the action gets to you.
