Shill,

Preflop is easy if BB will come along, and reasonably easy even if he doesn't. You're getting 4.4:1 which is enough if he'll pay off, and most will.

Turn play is interesting. Folding could be OK but if he'll bet KQs into you thinking K-high is the best hand, then I'd probably call, because he'll have KQo and KQs a certain portion of the time. I don't know if he'll have those as much as TT-KK here, but whatever. This might be a good time to call the turn and fold the river UI, because he'll often bet KQs on the turn but will almost never bet it on the river.

Now that I wrote that up, I realize I'm just calling if he 3-bets, because he's not going to 3-bet with AK or JJ or QQ very often at all.

Rob
