($10) a KQ hand.
UTG was tight (I've played him before) and UTG+1 was limping a LOT. No read on BB.
Was this line OK? Anyone folding PF? Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter SB (t865) BB (t955) UTG (t975) UTG+1 (t500) MP1 (t1708) MP2 (t1057) Hero (t745) CO (t470) Button (t725) Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls t30, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB checks.

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
This is why I fold KQ preflop most times, especially on CO+1, especially with only two limpers.

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
You should definitely value bet the river though. A smaller pp than a Q will call, I would think.

[img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] But you like more limpers to play this? I was thinking I would rather it be heads up...particularly with the looser opponent. But I don't think I can raise given my stack size. I also think I should have bet the river, but I'd hate an all-in push behind me if he thought his A's full/mid-PP was good, or slow played his A, or was just bluffing. |

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
I doubt he would check the A on the river after you checked behind on the turn.
So, a bet is in order. Preflop at level2 with 2 limpers, this is a pretty easy fold. If it's sooted however - |

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
Mike KQ is just not that good, honestly. It's certainly not worth a raise or bothering about "getting heads up" with, in the early stages of an SNG. Better just to fold.
Suited.. meh, well, I don't hate a limp so much. Depends on my mood and the table for that one. I'd still not raise with it though. |

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
The chance of you being behind is so small as to be virtually non-existant. After you have been so passive, there's no way anyone with a hand that can beat yours is not going to bet on the river.
I wouldn't want to play KQo against many opponents unless the situation was so good you couldn't turn it down. With a hand like that, you're hoping for a straight or two pair, (with no third straight card), and the odds are pretty long against that. |

Re: ($10) a KQ hand.
Out of position, I fold KQo most of the time during the early rounds, but in position I'll take a flop with it and trust myself to not get fancy thereafter.
