Default Re: Hand to evaluate

This is where the GAP concept comes in...

You must have atleast as a good of a hand that you would open raise with in that postion to call with.

Since KQs is near the bottom end of that range for "most" players, its a fold.

Another mistake that you made was by calling this raise with to many players to act behind you. This requires the hand to be near the top of the GAP to call.

With hands that are near the top of your UTG open raise with AK JJ-KK you can pop a reraise.


So as the open raise moves closer to the Button the GAP opens up and KQ can be a calling hand, But From a Early position raise its usually never wrong to fold.
