Smasharoo- Lots of players(including myself) don't raise KQo from the BB after this many limpers.


I'm aware of that.

You should, however.

It's pretty hard to even think of a situation against average .50/1 where you *don't* have an equity advantage here. You don't need to be ahead. You just need to have enough equity that action from your raise is +EV.

You should be raising KQ, KJs, AJ, etc. here without thinking about it. If you can fade the increased variance, you should be raising KJ, too. Embracing every +EV situation regardless of how marginal is how you maximize earn.
