KJs in the monkey house
 

Canterbury 8/16 9 handed
This game is insane. The straddler here is a drunk crazy gambooooling Asian dude who raises blind often and is a nut. The next dude is a total fish retard. The next dude is also a total fish retard. I have the best seat in the game, as these retards are on my right and the TAGish players take up the 3 seats to my left (I seat change g00t [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]).

So, UTG straddles, UTG+1 of course CC's, next donkey now raises. He plays very poorly pre and postflop. he could have any ace here or any pair. He could have a monster too. I look down at K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. What's my move?

I'd call. I like playing hands against bad players with position on them.
I don't see much of a reason to 4-bet unless you're afraid of some of the guys behind you and even then I don't think a 4-bet is keeping many hands out that you want out (maybe AJ?)
You've got a good hand and good position and people tend to go apeshit when there's a straddle.

4bet. Good hand good relative position, can't fold, drive out people behind you in the already big pot.

Re: KJs in the monkey house
 

3 bet to try and get the TAGs behind you out of there. After that, just call into the flop.

You fold and wait for a better opportunity. The range of hands is wide, yes but he's still will have you dominated enough. In addition, you are likely to pay more bets when you have Random-cap, gambool types in such a game.

You wouldn't take KJs to the flop in a ram n jam maniac game?
