Default KTo in small blind

3/6 B&M. Hero has small blind of $1 and holds KTo. 6 players have limped in a game where typically 5-7 see every flop. The rake is 10% up to $4 and $1 bad beat taken on most pots.

My question is whether or not people in the forum think that a call really has positive EV. I play significantly better than my opponents post-flop and am getting approximately 11-1 on the call.

I think it's close, but considering the size of the rake, poor position, and unsuited holding, what do you guys think?

Even from the button or CO, this is an easy call.

You've got decent high card and straight value. You'll flop top pair or a big draw far more often than 1 in 11 times, and in the case of the latter, being out of position is far from a bad thing against this many players.

Your biggest fear is that someone's limped with AT, TT, KJ or KQ, but we're not about looking for monsters under the bed. You're seeing this flop.
