Making a move with KJ suited at level three

[Monty Burns]

First time post. I have played for about 1 1/2 years but am now trying to really study the game and improve. I would really appreciate feedback on the hand below about any and all of the following: (i) pre-flop raise (was it just stupidly aggresive in early position with a caller already in the pot?) and (ii) the post-flop action. The caller had seemed passive up to this point; I though I could just blow him out of the hand. Lastly, could someone point me towards a link to the hand converter?

Thanks.

You have to fold this PF IMO. Your stack just doesn't afford you opportunities to play a nice draw hand like this...especially in EP. You still have 14 BB's.....in another lap or so around the track (blinds increased), you'll be looking to open-push -- perhaps with a similar hand. btw...your PFr was the death of you here....compelling you to throw out a CB on a horrid flop.

Assuming I had position and twice as many chips, I wouldn't mind seeing a CHEAP flop/turn looking for straight/flush opportunities. But with T700ish?....gotta muck this one PF.
