Re: Preflop question regarding KJs, please post opinion

excerpt from MLHP page 49...
Q: You are in the cutoff seat with KJ of clubs. Three players limp in. What do you do?
A: call. King-jack suited is normally not a raising hand. You want to see a flop, but not pay a high price to do so.
this situation is very similar to mine.

Ciaffone and Brier are wrong. This is a very clear raise. (As per usual, they don't seem to have a completely sophisticated grasp of how equity is distributed in certain situations... That lack of mathematical insight I think is there biggest failing, and probably explains a fair percentage of the tight-weak advice they give. The book is quite good with those exceptions.)
