KQo is not all that strong multiway. keeping the pot small here is not bad.

I agree, I really don't like the idea of trying to build a pot that will be 4, 5, or even 6 handed with KQo. None of the limpers are folding, and one or both of the blinds may come along regardless of your raise. Not that raising is bad, but I think its ridiculous to say that limping along is awful.

when you're playing in a game where limping Q2o+ K2+ 23o, etc. isn't uncommon at all, there really aren't.

How did you come to this assumption about the table?

your hand is likley much stronger than the limpers, and the blinds hands are random, so KQo is very good here. if its multiway, then you're going to have to hit a pair to win, but you're still getting very good equity on the money going in preflop. if its multiway and the flop is bad, you don't HAVE to bet if its checked to you.

I assumed typical, nonTAG players at that level.

well yeah, and 3 limps in a 6max game will just about never happen with 3 decent player having 3 solid hands. so if these players are unknowns then its still a pretty easy raise.

Definitely raised preflop.

After this, I bet that flop when it's checked to me. I take the free turn card and I just call the river.

Is that pussy on the river?
