I think I botched this hand... KQo in the CO

[Matt R.]

Party $10+1. What's your play with KQo when it's folded to you in the CO? I think at higher levels, it's probably an easy push as people's calling ranges won't be stupid. But, at the $10+1, I think a fold could be argued especially since the ONLY 2 people that have me covered at the moment are in the blinds, and people have retarded calling ranges in the 10's. I think the t425 raise may have been bad as well. Since I almost had 10x the BB, the plan originally was to make a slightly less than 3x the BB raise, but fold to a push from the big blind. This was because I was in okay shape with >9BB's and being 3rd in chips -- I didn't want to risk it all with a push. When SB pushed, I realized my pot odds were great and I'd only have 980 in chips if I folded -- and SB seemed to be a little on the loose/aggressive side. So I called (bleh, I know -- probably should have pushed or folded initially). I just think this is a very borderline situation all around, and wanted some feedback.
