calling preflop raises with KQ in the early going of a sng is bad. calling the flop raise with kq, not so much.

It's somewhat hard to believe that it could be VERY VERY BAD, but if so, I'm glad that I'm not playing the $20+2's. I believe that the standard play for $22 donks is to check/call with mid pairs and K-crap here. This looks a lot like 2-pair, set or AK-KQ to me.

I have no exact general idea on the $22 players though, I'm not giving any advice about that.

I was talking hypothetically about the flop. It was to show how bad I think JJ is there. I don't think anyone's suggesting to actually call preflop with KQ there.

The games are incredibly loose-passive in the 22s. A checkraise really has to respected there IMO. What would you put the villain on in a 109 here, then?
